Bueno sera (good evening)!! Hope you are all well on this beautiful day! Another hot and sweaty one here! I don't think I've walked so many stairs in my life! Crazy walking day today! We saw so much!
We started our morning with a cappuccino at the corner caffe shop...delicious! Figured out the metro and went to see the breathtaking Colosseum! The first time you see this you are in awe, it's stunning, everyone must see this place! We took a tour inside and I can't wait to show you more pictures, they don't do it justice at all! Our tour included the Roman forums as well. Super neat to see all the excavations and where 'today' Rome is on ground level to where Rome used to be! They say 5% of Rome is above ground and over the years it kept building over and over top like layers and these days they are excavating like crazy to reveal what Rome used to be. It's amazing what's underground, fascinating to think about! If I was in history class I definitely would of picked this place to write a paper about!
Side note...we were walking around and saw this guy parallel park...he could just barely fit but apparently in Rome if you can barely fit either park sideways straight into the curb or what we saw this guy do...back in and nudge the car behind you a few inches, drive forward to bump the car in front of you a few inches and keep doing that till your car fits into the space...I wonder what driving school is like here lol?!
