Day Five

Here are the Spanish Steps.  It is a great place to meet people.

Here is the Piazza de Popolo.  It is a very pretty piazza that I had never seen before.

The twin churches are one of the things that make this piazza so beautiful.

This is a live statue, many of the piazza's have people earning money this way.

Inside one of the churches.  Kinda dark photo, but I like it all the same.

Now that is a ceiling.

I love this photo.... one of my favs from the trip.

Trevi Fountain again, on a sunny day.

While I was gone my 7 year old lost his first tooth.  (he was eating a hamburger and felt something in is mouth, took it out looked at it thought it was part of the burger, put it back in his mouth and eat it.)

Had to give the lovely Tooth Fairy an IOU (BTW she is NEVER going to get that tooth;).

Day Four

Are you sick of photos from Roma yet? (of course you are not, how could you be sick of Roma????:)

My sister and I went off to find a market (that we did not find... we went every way but the right way to find it).  But we did find a fun area of Roma that I had not bee in .... I thought, until we found the pyramid.  That is right Roma has everything even a pyramid!  You can read about it here if you want to know more about it.  My sister thought that I was making up the fact that there was a pyramid in Roma, but she believed me when she saw it.  We also found my first cherry blossoms of the season!

That night we went to a really great restaurant.

 Sure that we did more then that, but that is all the photos that I have and I do not feel like looking at my notes:)

Day Three

My sister wanted to go to a museum (can't remember what it was called, but I do know that it had TONS of marble in it and most of it was missing hands, arms, feet.... you name it... but what do you expect after .... well I do not have any idea how many years (maybe I should have had my sister write this post;) )

 There where also cool mosaics.

This woman could use a nose job.... hehehehe

It was pretty cool to see these faces from the past and look at all the hair styles (I have been doing a lot of looking at hair styles as I am ready to chop my hair off).

Love this hair.

Silly photo.

Man, how long do you think it took to do this hair?

This guy was really cool.  They put different color "stuff" on him to make it look like blood (he is was a boxer).

This on was kinda weird because she looks like she comes from my family tree.

This was a cool fence (much nicer then our fences).

just a cool photo.

I think this was a tomb.

Mom liked this and wondered how hard it would be to mak into a quilt.... HARD.

I thought this would be a really cool quilt border (but lots of work).

We had dinner at a place and on the way to the bathroom they had this wall of wine cases.  COOL.

Day Two in Roma

I do not have a lot to say and a lot of photos, so most of them will just be photos.

This the road leading up to the Pantheon.  I love this building and it is tucked into the middle of the city.  You will be walking along on the little streets (which also have cars on them) and you look up and there it is!

Not a great photo, but it is one of the only ones of the 3 of us.

We had lunch on the square (it was dear def #5(as my mom would say), but a great place to see people)

I just love the look of the buildings (the colors are just GREAT.)

Not sure why I like this photo, but I do:)

Couple last photos of the Pantheon.

Here we are at Navona.

A wonderful door.
