Roma

We took a two day side trip to Rome because we couldn’t convince ourselves we would do it in the summer heat and crowds. No pictures cause of the dead camera battery. We walked the Roman Forum at night, saw the Vatican museums, Sistine Chapel, Colosseum and a bunch of great statues.

We took the Eurostar train there and back. Relaxing and comfortable. Much better than driving.

We had a funny dinner in a restaurant where we (accidently) woke up an old man who cooked for and served us. We ate what he suggested and it was great. Some other non-italian diners didn’t take his suggestions and hardly got anything to eat. We learned a lesson the easy way.
