florence / rome

so dad and i arrived later than expected last night into milan. our train from rome left at 3:30 and we didnt arrive back until almost 9:30. we spent the last 24 hours of our trip in rome. i do not recommend attempting to conquer rome in 24 hours. however, i think we both enjoyed florence quite a bit more, so maybe its ok.

you can casually tour florence by foot, however if you want to see all of rome you have to use a different means of transport. we chose to follow the herd and take one of the double decker tourist buses on the first night we arrived. it helped us find our way around town. dad claims he had the best meal of the trip at a little restaurant in rome near piazza barberini. or, pizza barbie.

my camera died midway through the colosseum visit. it didnt make it to the vatican.

here are the few pictures we managed to take.

and i decided to make the pictures bigger on the main page b/c they look too small normally, and then when you try to enlarge them they get too big.

outside the hotel in florence.

we didnt have enough time to view the inside.
