Welcome to Roma!!!

So after a car, a plane, a train and then a bus we have made it!  Actually we got here a couple of days ago but wifi and internet cafes are not as plentiful here as in Malta.  Surprising really but that is the way it is! 

Rome is brilliant although it is raining today and is cold so I guess we have left the better weather in Malta.  It is magnificent here, so far we have thrown a coin in the Trevi Fountain, visited the Colesseo (well worth the queue), braved the Spanish Steps and taken a sight seeing bus all around.  We have visited a heap of other places but their names escape me. 

I figured I would like this place when breakfast consisted of a coffee and a chocolate crossiant!  Lattes can cost between €1.50 and €5.00 but they have all been good so far.  However regardless of where we are I do think €5 (about $6 or 7 AUD) is a bit steep!

Off to the Vatican tomorrow and the Sistine Chapel.  Should be great.  Our apartment is right near the Castel S'Angelo where the Pope runs to via a special passage way if he is in Danger.  It too is an amazing building.

Anyway Ciao to you all xxxx
