We arrived suppertime Thursday. It is now about 11pm here on Friday night. In Illinois, this would be 4pm.
Have had a great time so far! Weather is gorgeous.

ps Captions on photos dont have any apostrophes. Thats because I cant find the keystroke. Not to mention, this keyboard has no shift, there is a roundabout way to type "@" symbol (had to ask these dudes here at the internet store after trying to figure it out for 5 mins), AND my semicolon is a ò. No semicolon.
Whats that all about? haha

Another inside shot. You can see where the gladiators came out past my right shoulder. The groundlevel was extended originally, only partly there now. Underneath walkways exposed.

Crazy cab ride to Pantheon. (Tonya couldnt bear to walk another 30 min) :) Way too fast, down too small of a street!

The famous Roman Pantheon. What a day. From here, went for Italian dinner with local wine.
