Mambo Italiano

We had a lot of fun in good ol' Rome, the city founded by Romulus (seen here with his brother Remus).



One of our first stops was the mighty Coliseum where we got to stab a few gladiators and run away from the lions.



We then visited Vatican City, here's a picture taken from the top of the Basilica. We didn't get to share a drink with the pope; he was off visiting another city. So instead of leading the mass live he was broadcasted to the Vatican center, we watched it although of course we couldn't understand what he was saying.



Tradition says it's good luck to rub St. Peter's foot, you can see how it has worn down over the years (I guess the "good luck" only flows one way).





We stopped by the famous Pantheon, built in 125 - originally built as a temple of all gods. One of the reasons why it's famous is that despite being 1881 years old it has held up remarkably well.
