Look at those sleepy faces wondering why Mommy pulled them out of bed. 
OK, now that we have that out of the way here are some of our Roma pictures. Friday we took a tour of the Colosseum and the Ruins on Palatine Hill.
Here is the Colosseum. It looks sunny but we were freezing, especially our guide Lorenzo.

Roman Forum
Playing in the fountain in front of the Spanish Steps. 
Us on the Spanish steps, even in off season they are crowded with people, and yet everyone seems to agree they are just steps. On Sat. I was able to fulfill on of my life goals. To see the Sistine Chapel. We had some difficulty finding the place, missed our tour, but managed to get onto the next one. It was a lot of fun. Amazing! I didn't take many pictures since there were always random people in every shot. So I bought a book instead. Our guide was a little weird at times, but I enjoyed hearing all the history and stories behind the paintings, sculptures, tapestries, and mosaics.
Us at Vatican City infront of the St. Peters Cathedral. Which was also beautiful. 
And lastly a random shot. So far our trip has been a lot of fun even with our mishaps. Our biggest piece of luggage was MIA for a day, but has since been delivered. We missed our tour. And today, the ATM ate Brad's credit card. Despite that we are having fun and are looking forward to moving to Florance tomorrow.
