Ciao Rome!

When booking our flights home, it was half the price to fly out on Monday, so (twist our arms) we just had to stay one more day.  There was just one more thing I wanted to see in Rome, and that was the Villa Borghese Gallery.  Tickets for this gallery must be booked in advance, and we I was thrilled to pay a visit.  
No pictures allowed inside, so you will have to take my word for it.  The collection is incredible.
Visiting the gardens.

It was HOT!  Thank goodness for fountains.

Sites around the park.

Don't they look thrilled.


Unforunately, a lot of Rome looked like this on this trip.
Taking a break.


Dinner time!

Hoping to come back soon!

 We took the metro to see the Colosseum one last time.  The moon was shining through.  It was beautiful!

Packing up and getting ready to leave the ship. :(
Gelato stop




I can't even tell you how sweaty and gross we were by this point in the night.  Well, okay, maybe you can tell. :)
Just what everyone needs....an old exercise bike in their hotel room.  Interesting.

That officially concludes our summer travels.  I was in nine countries in eight weeks.  This is a far cry from my travels less than two years ago.  Who would have thought???  Looking forward to our next adventure.

Until next time,
Wendy
