Happy Easter from Rome!
A rainy day here but everyone has purchased beautiful umbrellas and ponchos. We have walked a lot so far. Over 7 miles so far with probably a couple more to go tonight as we will go on a “Rome by Night” tour.
Items witnessed: Pantheon. Castel. Trevi fountain. Spanish steps. Montmarte kids trying cigars and drinking beer. Our YG kids are being Angels as expected! They are leaving their chaperones in the dust running up huge blocks of stairs. My I admire their stamina!
Leslie: Jordyn is perfectly happy and content. She said she has tried to contact you but she can’t access wifi due to bad luck. I have offered my phone but she is a little stubborn. 😊 no worries. We are clucking over her like the 3 mother hens that we are 😘.
The food on this tour has been fantastic. No hungry kids or adults this time 😊. Salad, pizza and gelato for dinner tonight. Delicio!
All is good and we are all happy and enjoying life! Ciao!
Italian words: Piazza. Equals square
Update: Rome by night was good. We saw the Jewish ghetto which the Italians emptied out and sent the inhabitants to Auchwitz which was a sobering story. We had a chance to visit the Coliseum by night for a few pics. We will tour it completely tomorrow before heading to Florence after lunch. Today’s total for today was 9 miles of walking. A few 😳 are reporting that their tootsies are a little sore. Ciao!
Thanks so much for blogging – the Montmartre parents are following, so we are THRILLED to have any and all info. on your travels. Enjoy. Enjoy. Enjoy.
Happy Easter to everyone and hugs & kisses to Logan Froese … (he’ll love that I found a way to get some affection to him, even in Rome)!!!! Photos would be fab!
