Steve and I outside our apartment on the outskirts of Rome.
The kids loved catching snails. Kaycie even stuck one in her mouth.....yuck!
The green machine is going strong in Italia. Lush vegetation by the beach.
Toes in the sand feel good!
Chase always orders seafood pasta. His favorite!
Catching a frog.
Chase the lizard man, "liz" for short as we like to call him, was in his element. He loves catching lizards and has branched out to snails, ect. The kids took this picture. Better than my photography!
Seashells at the beach.
Brothers and friends.
I love this picture...very awesome!
Running from the waves.
Snails attached to the flower.
After scouring the racks for the perfect sunglasses, "Mr. Italiano" chose this look.....Bello!
Inside the Vatican City Museum.
Drinking fountain Italian style.
The Mediteranean Sea.
Castle by the sea. Too bad it was under construction so we couldn't go inside.
Vatican city. This is where the Pope addresses his congregation.
Vatican City with Rick Steve's guide book in hand.
Michelangelo's Pieta. Very Beautiful- inside St. Peter's Basilica.
Inside St. Peter's Basilica.
Mailing postcards inside Vatican City. A tourist's "must do".
The Forum.
A view of the apartment we stayed at. Great for the kids.
A view from our front door. The Mediteranean is in the distance.
Fountain in Vatican City.
Stopping for pizza.
Asleep in Rome.
Motorcycles and narrow streets.
The best gelato in Italy!
Trevi Fountain
Ryan throwing a coin over his back into Trevi Fountain. Legend has it that doing this ensures another trip back to Rome.
A view outside from inside the Coloseum. I loved the orange building contrasted with the yellow!
Posing with the gladiators. After asking if all 5 kids were ours, we had many locals(including these brutes) advise us to buy a television; Italian humor at it's best!
Rolling down the hill outside the Coloseum was probably one of the highlights for the kids.
More mopeds and motorcycles.
The Pantheon.
Steps in the Coloseum.
Inside view of the Coloseum. The bottom section was where the animals and prisoners were kept. (Horizontal section)This was all under ground back then.
Another look at the passageways below the floor of the Coloseum.
Taking a break on History.
My Gladiators! Look at the columns- very impressive!
A train ride into Roma.
Termini train station.
A family photo outside the Coloseum.
The Coloseum was very impressive!
I think this stone road has been here awhile. Not stroller friendly by the way.
