Have I mentioned how amazing the shopping was? 

We toured toured the Vatican Museum and the Sistine Chapel. Both were full of beautiful art and history. We also saw the Pope while we were there. He's the little guy in white very far away!!!!
Rome had to be one of my favorites! I loved everything about this city, the fashion, the cafe's, the chaos and especially the 2,000 year old building known as the Colosseum. I've heard so many stories, seen so many pictures but to stand inside the Colosseum was incredible. This amphitheater could hold up to 50,000 people. 

The floor is missing and below are underground passages where they kept animals and prisoners. Criminals, gladiators and animals fought to death and this is what they considered entertainment!
We only spent a few hours in Florence, not enough time for this city full of art and history. We saw Michelangelo's David at the Accademia and took a tour of the Uffizi Gallery.
