When in Rome......

We made it to Rome today and have already seen a lot. After walking around awhile looking for our hostel (what's new), we enjoyed some pb&j in the park with some hobos. The first thing we saw was the Colosseum and it was awesome!!!!!!!! (Holly's favorite so far). We got the guided tour and learned a lot about the background of the place. Once again we are enjoying free admissions from culture week! Next, we walked up to the old ruins and explored that area where we saw many cool things including the cell Peter and Paul were imprisoned in back in the day. The Pantheon (real one) was cool too and we took a break at the fountain across the street near McDonalds. Yep, McDonalds is right across from the Pantheon! We were starving by this time so we stopped for some pizza at an outdoor cafe. Unfortunately for Andrea, her pizza was albino (all cheese with no sauce). She may be a little stopped up :) Tomorrow we head to the Vatican! Pope, here we come!
