Hello, b here. (Amy) The piture is of the collosseum at night. This is because we have already done the daytime collosseum (been there done that got the t shirt....actually we havent but we really really want it) and in a couple of hours when it is nighttime we are off on the "mettttro" to go and see it like that, all lit up in the dark.
