Roma...

We spent two hot days in Rome this week.



Lulu and cousin Evan hanging out in the Colosseum.



Felix and Graham...and two cool moms.



Love those Roman ruins.



The Forum...



The line at the bancomat took forever.


Poolside at the Aldrovandi Palace Hotel.



We stayed at our friend Lisa's summer apartment with a great terrace over Piazza Vittorio Emmanuelle



The Spanish Steps...





They even named a street after Pennsylvania Avenue in Washington, DC!



The Trevi Fountain..







Just walking the streets one sees amazing things in Rome.



The Capitoline Museums are huge and have some incredible artifacts.



Romulus, Remus, Felix, Lulu. Felix and Lulu prefer suckling on a lollipop.





Saint Peter's square in the Vatican.



Lulu on the train back to Umbria, sleeping off her Roman holiday.

  1. Hi there, Grandma here. Wow, what a summer adventure you both are having. Italy is indeed beautiful and so very old. Nice cake, Felix. Hope your birthday was happy. Wish I could have celebrated with you. I promise, you will always remember turning 10 in Italy and the wonderful things you've seen and done. Looking at your wonderful faces in these pictures makes me miss you guys all the more. I love technology that allows me to take this trip with you, even though I'm here in Virginia. Hope to see you really soon after to get back home. Love and XOXOXO's to all of you.
