Roman Holiday

Well I guess this is the place. I saw a poster with Gregory Peck and Audrey Hepburn riding a scooter -"Roman Holiday" not sure I remember that movie! but we are here! Incredible sites. Went to the Coliseum after arrival off the plane..Wow, walk out the metro station and bam! here it is - The Colosseum
Today was the Vatican, and St. Peter square. Line was 3 hours long till Jim from Michigan came by, offering a private tour and get in now! So I went the VIP route. Decision was to skip a big dinner and go for the tour.
The Sistine chapel with Michelangelo paintings out of this world. And the St.Peter's Basilica, 6 acres of church, largest in the world, took 120 years to build back in 1506 from stones robbed from the Roman Forum. Rome is an incredible historic city.
Oh yea, think we have tough IRS here? Here they have the "finance police", can close your business down in a minute. Well just a short note to say we made it. See you in a day or two. This is from my little palm top via hotel phone. Hard to type. CIAO!

This Year's Trip - Mediterranean & Greek Isles

Well Friends and family welcome to my blog. Its time again to get out in the world and see it. We are off to Europe, the Mediterranean and Greek Isles by way of a cruise. Three days in Rome, a 12 day cruise, then 3 days in Venice.

Join us on the trip. With one day port stops, I might not have much time to send pictures on here, don't want to spend my time in the Internet shops, but I'll try.

Travel with us...see you on the road!
