Rome
 
 
 
 
When you think of Rome you probably automatically think of a couple of things - The Vatican (next page) and the Coliseum and fountains.  We found our way to the Coliseum.
 
 
 
 
 
The inside doesn't look like it did when the Gladiators fought there.  There is no more floor but you can see the underground tunnels where they were kept before they fought the tigers to the death.
 
 
And yes there are plenty of fountains.
 
 
 
The famous Trevi fountain.
 
 
 
We also found our way to the Parthenon.  This place has a hole in the center of the roof so not only sun can get in but pigeons and rain too.  It is quite beautiful inside, and free to visit.
 
 
 
A famous old fort up on the hill.
 
 
Beautiful architecture in the bridges and all over..
