ROMA AMOЯ

Since our last blog, DawnO and I have explored Rome and we have captured some pretty nice shots of the city.

Neither of us are very good at doing tours because we are either too cheap, or we are just not that interested. This time we downloaded some free audio tours on DawnO’s phone and it has helped our enjoyment level immensely. I think we must look like siamese twins because we can’t stray too far from each other or we’ll end up clothes-lining some unsuspecting tourist with our headphones.

We went to Vatican City, and I didn’t combust on entry as I thought I might. It was an interesting pageantry of wealth and power, I suppose. It’s still not my cup of Kool-Aid though. Highlights include the Raphael room, and the amazing Sistine Chapel. This made the crowds worth it.

We have been taking full advantage of the Italian cuisine. DawnO enjoys her nightly limoncello, and I have been spoiled with gluten free pasta, pizza, and the occasional beer.
