Rome

Wow was today a whopper of a day....
look its a swiss guard!!!!



so very exhausting with the Vatican and Colosseum the main items of interest followed by a night of leisure...











and 5 of us went out for dinner and drinks... followed by cards...
and this is a pic of one of the amazing mozaics in St Peters where you can actually take pictures and use flash because there is no artwork and only mosaics with incredible details...


first it was interesting trying to order in another language when you have no idea what you are doing...
and then the Italians have an interesting idea of what a mixed drink is...
think a larger glass full of 90% vodka and 5% raspberry syrup...
and it was only 4 Euro's!!!!



I don't know if you understand me...
but that is cheaper than I can buy soft drinks at the moment!!!



lots of love and hugz

PS... sorry about the crappy format of this post but this web brouser is shitting me so i may or may not fix it later...

  1. You really do take great photos. Love the one of the collosseum with the rays of sunlight streaming through. The weather seems kind to you. Now how was the food? Enquiring minds want to know. Dad says Hi too.
