But those are some sweet pics. You will have to post you favorite activities/sights/etc. When you get the chance.
I really enjoyed my trip to Italy. Rome was beautiful, I will definitely go back in the future. The pictures were taken by a professional photographer that me and my wife hired for 3 hours. She took pictures around the Colosseum, Trevi Fountain and a few other random places. I don't want to post all the pictures because it might bored you guys.

We visited Rome during their down season so that's why some of those landmarks were not crowded with people. That picture in front of the Trevi Fountain was take at 8am in 40 degree weather, therefore there weren't many people. We walked by it the night before and it was jammed pack.

My first encounter of Rome's public water fountain. Water tasted fresh.

This is how I pictured most of rome would be like in the residential areas. But it was not, only this one area we came upon in Trastevere.
