Walking many miles in the steps of Ancient Roman time was Incredible. Truly the most facinating tour of the trip. 4 hours of historic buildings, ruins, arches, ending at the collisium. Awe struck. Horrifying as to what took place at the collisium, sad as to the destruction, fascinated by the how it was all managed and built, and continual debates between Leslie and our guide made for an unforgettable experience.

(Stay tuned for the newest version of the Buns of Steel video, by Leslie and Jill it's not a pretty sight...We must have climbed a thousand stairs today.)

This afternoon was our cooking class with Chef Gaetano Costa as we prepared a fabulous four course Italian meal. What a blast. Learning a few new tricks of the trade by means of authentic highend Roman style cooking we enjoyed a taste sensation. Shrimp with veggie stuffed puff pastry, lobster spaghettini, artichoke deep fried stuffed with scallops, pistachio ice cream, chestnut chocolate cream on pastry, wine pairing. Delightful

We would like to write more but between the stair master workout and sublime meal we are exhausted! We must rest now...

Tomorrow is our last day in Rome before our long journey back home. Not sure what we will conquer.

Rome may not have been built in a day but we sure tried to see it in one...
