And so to Rome. We are on coach 35 heading for Rome after another early start, and our tour guide is telling where and when to meet at the end of the day. Hopefully we will be getting about five and a half hours to explore Rome on our own. Jake is on another bus with Nanny and Grandad to visit the Colosseum - more stops and less walking for them.
Yesterday we were in Livorno and took the tour to Pisa and Florence. The leaning tower was great - lots of the comedy photos were taken (the funniest thing being seeing the long lines of people stood with their arms stretched out - "left a bit, right a bit, ok don't move!").
Our first stop in Florence was a Trattoria in Piazza Santa Croce, and then we tried and failed to get on the open top bus tour. Still it turned out that the city centre is very compact and we were able to see some fantastic sights - the Duomo is just breathtaking.
We didn't get long enough to see everything, but another city has just been added to the must revisit list.
Must stop now, our guide is advising us about where to go in Rome.
