How amazing is Rome? Um, pretty amazing. I promise. So many things and so little time. But I think we were able to squeeze in all the FUN!
The Roman Forum was FANTASTIC! Were talkin 2,000 years old here. Original pillars still stand today and we walked on the same stones that Julius Cesar walked on. We stood where he lived and is buried now. 
Julius himself would walk from the forum directly across this street to....
The COLOSSEUM.
In which we were amazed. The Colosseum is unbelievable. 
We couldn't get enough of this place (hence the pictures), we loved learning the history of it.
I mean, we have stadiums today because of this place!! So cool.
...and we did learned that where you go in the day you MUST go back at night.......so we did...
and loved it just as much.
There are churches EVERYWHERE in Rome. If we saw a church somewhere we walked in. And were so glad we did because we would of missed out on things like this:
Though this blue ceiling is breath taking, our favorite church was St. Peters Basilica in
Vatican City.
(St. Peters Dome)
After a nice day in Vatican City we ended it at The Pantheon.

As the sun was setting and the Pantheon was closing we walked out the doors and captured what is now our favorite plaza. This plaza is what I think of when I think about "ROME". All you could see was colorful buildings with colorful shutters, and charming cafes filling up for dinner, you could hear the water fountain splashing, and the little Italian band playing fun music. This is where I fell in love with the city.
This is the place that I imagined Rome to be; romantic.
BUT, no matter where we went in Rome I knew I was safe with my Paramedic.
...say goodbye to our clothes because this is the last stop we were able to wear them...
stay tuned...
Off to Florence.
