Roma

Our trip to Rome was amazing. The food, the weather, the sites, the people, everything was so beautiful. I have a million pictures, and will try to restrain from letting them all loose on the site, but I must say Rome has been one of my favorite cities thus far. It has a slight edge over Paris in that you can get gelato until the very wee hours of the morn'. (!!!!!!!) Which of course, we did. Every day (sometimes twice?).

One hall of the ever-winding Musei Vaticani. At the very end, you finally get to see the Sistine Chapel, which was oh so worth the wait. The entire museum was stuffed to the brim with Roman art.



Isola Tiberina



A few of the 2 billion others we saw. Awesome!



Seriously, we like history. eEEeeeEEE This is the Palatino site where there are hundreds of ruins.



Some big old thing. Guess it's important...

Hi


I have been unbelievably terrible about recording my adventures in France. I have a very unfortunate problem of buying little notebooks and then not filling them! Perhaps this blog will serve more useful, as I may be more inclined to write if it's proximal to my online comics. Perhaps? Perhaps.
