When in rome...

Today we arrived in Rome. Rome is such an amazing city. We both love it!

We are staying at a bed and breakfast that is run by a very nice pionner couple. It's in the center of the city and is in a very safe area. 

Today we got to see a ton of things. We got to go inside the coliseum, go in the forums (which has incredible views), walk across some of the old roman roads, see the ancient ruins of Rome (we got to see some things that were built in the 3rd century!!), see lots of historical buildings and fountains, and see the city at night. One of the neatest things we saw today was where Paul was in prison while he was in Rome. It was so cool to think that we were right where the apostle Paul was! 

For dinner we had some incredible pasta then went and had the best gelato. Rome is so incredible and historical. We can't wait for another day in Rome tomorrow!!
