Roman Holiday

In January, we spent four days in Rome and one in Florence. We stayed in a cute little boutique hotel in Trastevere which seemed to be the perfect location for delicious food, wine and scenery. In between our gastronomic excesses we managed to experience all of the major sites in Rome: The Vatican and its many museums, St. Peter's Square, Roman Forum, Colosseum, Spanish Steps, Pantheon, and the Capitoline Museums. Sometimes it was just nice to stroll along the Tiber River too. The weather was chilly and a bit rainy, but the time away from Athens was fantastic. Follow these links to some of our favorite photos from our trip.

  2. Hey Erin! Sorry this post took so long to arrive. Rob and I bought a Nikon D40 just before we came to Greece and just after we got back to Athens from our Rome trip I started taking lessons with it. I love it!
