Roman Holiday

We made it back safely from Rome. I’m sure that everyone is anxious to hear all about our trip, so I wanted to get some information up on the blog. There are so many things that I want to talk about! I’m not going to write everything in one blog – that way you don’t have to wait weeks for me to finish it all. Kara is here until Saturday afternoon, and Rachell and Jeff arrive that same day, so as you can imagine, I’ll be quite busy over the next couple of weeks. I’ll just write when I can and give it to you in smaller installments. I’ll do the pictures that way too. We took over 1700 pictures over the 4 days we spent in Rome, so there is a lot of work ahead of me just to find the best ones for the web album!

When Kara was making plans to come over, she mentioned that she would like to visit a place other than London while she was in Europe. She mentioned southern Europe or the Mediterranean, so we decided on Rome. Michael took 2 days off work so we could have a long weekend to see everything we wanted to see.

Travel tip: Wear tennis shoes! We averaged 10 – 15 miles each day while in Rome. My feet are still sore!

Without keeping you in suspense for too long, I will tell you that we had a great, if exhausting, time. We all enjoyed some things more than others, but overall it was a great vacation. I can’t wait to tell you all about it!
