3 coins in the fountain
July 8, 2010 - Rome Italy.
Another busy day on the Trafalgar Tours European Accent trip. As it turns out, it is well named - a small taste of everything on a big menu. We left Venice early and traveled through Bolonga on oue way to Tuscany and Umbra. Tuscany is as beautiful as it looks in the movies and Jerry Seinfeld episodes. Buy the way, for fans of the show, there are houses for rent in Tuscany. Unfortunately, they are extremely expensive! We had lunch in Umbra and made our way into Rome. We revisit Tuscany on our way to Paris, so more on that another time. It is currently 10:30 pm in Rome and it is 33 C. We have just returned from an amazing walking tour of Rome. The Forum, the Pantheon, St. Peter;s Bascillica, and a thousand other places I can't spell at this late hour! Suffice it to say that we are very, very humbled by walking down the same path Michael Angelo did some 2000 years before us. We threw some coins into the Tiveli Fountain for good luck for you all. More tomorrow !

ALL THE BEST FROM rOME.
LOVE,
HAL & SHERRY
