Rome Part 1

Well here I am trying to figure out how to choose only a few pictures out of the 1 million that I have taken. Impossible. So I will have to break them up into sections. It's a lot of pictures but not all...I'll spare you.

 It has been 1 week since we have been back and I am STILL super jet lagged. I am going to sleep around 9 and have this lingering nausea and upset stomach. Don't worry, I looked it up and it's common :) 

Anyways, let's start with Roma. Rome was my favorite city! Last time I went to Rome it was only for a weekend and absolutely loved it so I knew it would be even better coming back. It had the best food, the Romans were the most friendly and the city is absolutely beautiful with all the hustle and bustle. I just about died with love seeing the Roman women riding their adorable bicycles to work dressed to the nine weaving through cars, some even chatting on their cell phone and/or smoking their cigarettes. In fact, Italy is trying to pass a new law that bicycle riders would no longer be able to talk on their mobiles or smoke while riding because it's "dangerous." haha! In my opinion, you can't take that away from Italians...you just can't!

I already can't wait to go back

 Piazza Navona...our favorite piazza/fountain to visit at night since the Trevi was also under construction (completely covered and drained)

 Brian always got the hazelnut and I always got pistachio

 Tiber River...we loved strolling along the river

 Vatican Museum...it's just as important to look at the floor as it is the ceilings and walls (everywhere, not just the vatican)
