Laura really wanted to see the Colosseum, so that was our big accomplishment.
We also visited the Forum and Palantine Hill. Laura wasn't always happy during this stop, but I'm not going to post the photo of her looking angry. I wasn't too happy during this time either, in fact, because ancient stone streets/paths and umbrella stroller wheels really don't go well together. Just in case you were wondering ...
But we had a lot of fun overall, did a lot of walking and exploring, and managed to avoid dipping Owen into this fountain.
It was hot enough that I doubt he would have cared.
We weren't able to get close enough to the Trevi Fountain to do any dipping (or coin throwing), but it still was cool.
And I discovered that I have fans. Graffiti-producing fans. Or at least that there are graffiti-producing people who like to write my name, as this wasn't the only occurence.

great pics! love the kids in matching stripes.
I love benefitting from trainings or meetings in places I want to go. Many trips have been taken for that reason.
What a marvelous opportunity. At this point I am starting to be jealous. It seems that you are close to so many fun things!
I am really happy for you.
Am so jealous love the clear skies ya'll have a good time. I will be soaking all that up. I got my tickets to "david" and the acadamie. Pisa is on the list as is Sienna Rome (but that is at the end) the rest is just open ended depending on what everyone wants to do.
Maybe it's a gang's name. :)
Awesome! We already ordered an extra toddler carrying backpack so that we don't have to take the stroller, I was worried about that. And leaving it places as I am sure they don't appreciate double strollers in churchs ha! Four weeks and counting!
Awesome photos! I never made it to Rome ... after seeing your photos, I'm wishing I did!
