It’s our last day on vacation. Tomorrow we have to leave. Sad. This morning started with a bit of a late start. Nashon enjoys his sleep. After breakfast at the hotel, we started on our long walk across town. The weather cooperated quite nicely. The day started with a light rain but by the time we got to the streets it was clearing up. The sun was even showing through in places.
The walk was worth it. The Coliseum is beautiful. We joined a tour just starting into the Coliseum. Nashon enjoyed the history lessons, Jamie enjoyed the ruins. It was a win-win situation. With the weather even sunnier, it was time to have a treat and relax before we tackled the Roman Forum and Palatine hill. Jamie chose the largest donut ever made; it was almost a foot across.
After the pick me up snack we were off to see the surrounding ruins. The area must have been beautiful in its heyday. The marble was all stolen during the renaissance for other things. The most prominent of these other things, is the Vatican. Much walking and meandering over the hills around the Coliseum ended with a tired Jamie. Nashons feet weren’t doing much better. A taxi back to the hotel ended the day. Tomorrow is a long flight home.
WOOT!!! Wow you guys must have enjoyed the doughnut!!! A foot across!! So didnt know they were made THAT big!!!! Sounds like you two had a great and awesome time!! Ready for a day at the spa to soak your guys’ feet???
