Italy was by far my favorite country on our backpacking trip through Europe. I didn't realize Rome was such a small city! We easily walked from one end to the other in not very much time. Some of the highlights of Rome were the Trevi Fountain, the Spanish Steps, the Pantheon, The Collosseum and The Vatican! Sadly, we didn't get to see the Sistine Chapel because we didn't realized it closed so early (at like, 3pm!). Well, that just gives me an excuse to go back! And holy crap...the food was AMAZING. The pasta and the gelato and the pizza...I could definitely get used to that :P
