Als and KJ hanging out at the Coliseum in Rome
Quick update here from Capri where KJ, Aliya and I (melissa) are spending the day. After sad good-byes to the rest of the group, we stopped at the Sofitel to have dinner with our new friend from Canada before he headed to Afghanistan.

We then slept the night of the 13th in the airport to make our plane in the morning. We arrived safely in Rome and did a quick tour of Trevi Fountain and other historical sites. We headed to Sorrento and grabbed dinner and sleep.

Today we are touring Capri, with hopefully a wonderful dinner in Sorrento tonight.

I am heading to Rome tomorrow morning to see the Vatican and Spanish Steps and Als and KJ are going to be in Sorrento for 2 more days.

Better run, we want to grab lunch and head to the Island of the Sirens. More soon!

PS Our trip to Rome was quick and short on Wednesday. The pictures show most of our major stops.

Due to the vastness of Rome on the way to the Patheon we accidently took an extra mile or two walk so when we reached the Capital again we took a break by the fountain...
