ROME

/ SEPTEMBER 5–8, 2017 /

We drove to Florence, returned our rental car, then took a train to Rome. We had to hit a lot of the sights: the Vatican, the Colosseum, etc.

Back in Florence at Zecchi. This time I bought some watercolors.

We ran (ran!) to the sandwich store to buy sandwiches for the train.

Our Airbnb hosts in Rome owned this toast shop, where we waited for awhile until our apartment was ready.

Waiting in line at the Vatican

I waited in line while Brandon ran to get sandwiches.

Apparently the Pope gives a public address every week and we just missed it.
