We are fast approaching our last hours in Rome... It took us 3 hours to get in & figure out our way form the B&B to the train station to return the car. Yesterday we hit the Vatican -- as you saw in the last blog entry. THe Sisteen Chapel is amazing!! Met up with Bryon & Amy Surace last night. We went on the evening "rick Steeves" walk ... and it started to rain. Not so lively of a crowd, but very fun. The resturant we went to is fabulous -- our waiter gave us suggestions of pasta dishes & dessert. We ALMOST got a free cab ride back to our hotel.... you'll have to ask Angie about that later ;-)
THis moring was RAINING so hard... we slept in after our long night. Around 11am, Andy, Nicole & Angie went to the Collosieum & Forum/Palantine hill. Thankfully the rain kept most of the crowds away. But by 1:30pm, the sun came out & burned off all the rain. Fabulous!!!
So, now we are getting ready to head out on yet another adventure with the Surace's... I think it has something to do with cigar smoiking, wine
drinking, and conversation until dawn... added pic from before.
Ciao!

Ange - loved the concise way you summed up your trip. You made it possible for me to feel/sense the whole Western European experience for myself. Can't wait to see the pictures!!!
