Ciao!
Tonight is the last night of 3 we have spent in Rome. We are still in awe that we have gotten to see some of the most iconic sites. We saved the Colosseum for tomorrow and we are pretty pumped. Today we visited the Vatican and the buildings were beautiful. St. Peter's Basilica is one of the most beautiful buildings we've ever seen. However, a major draw back was the massive crowds making the tour less than enjoyable. We made the best of it anyways. Tomorrow we are off to Munich to experience Oktoberfest!! Should be interesting.
We are definitely soaking up this amazing country and enjoying some of its delicacies -- cannot seem to get enough gelato and the pizza is to die for. On our last day in Sorrento we bought a family sized pizza (the size of a rectangular cooking tray) with fresh tomato sauce, tomato sauce and basil for 7 euros. It was the best pizza we have ever tasted. The walls of the building we adorned with articles of the owner winning awards for making the biggest pizzas. In a few photos there was dough bigger than him hanging off of him.
We were disappointed to not have visited Positano or the Almafi coast as planned because the transportation system was less than reliable on the day we were to travel. We decided on the hassle free approach instead of trying to cram everything in. Hopefully we can fit in later.
When in Rome - eat pizza, savour gelato and try and run over pedestrians. xox.
