I apologize for the fact that these are all out of order (the pictures are backwards as far as what I did from beginning to end), but these are some of the MANY photos from my trip to Rome!
This here is San Angelo's Castle, which is close to St. Peter's Square.
Looking down the road at the Vatican
Old, neat-looking bridge
St. Angelo's again
Colosseum!! One of the monuments I had always wanted to see!
Me on the Spanish Steps... which of course was one of my favorite places (mostly because of the name)
Me in front of the Colosseum with my 5 Euro umbrella (yes... it rained a lot there!)
Arch of Triumph
Venetian Plaza... I had the biggest Christmas tree ever! haha
Venetian Plaza again
Trevi Fountain! Absolutely beautiful at night!
Katie and I visited it Christmas night.

Inside St. Peter's Basilica

The pope
Don't worry, folks, he survived the woman trying to tackle him...
Christmas Eve Mass
A service in many different languages... it was incredible!
We had some great seats! We deserved them too, after waiting in line for 6 hours, fighting off people who were trying to cut, and then literally running up the Basilica's steps in the rain... yeah... it was an adventure!
St. Peter's Square
Me in front of St. Peter's Basilica
These next few pictures are from the Vatican Museum. I really liked this artwork because it shows Jesus as a shepherd, as one who takes care of us, leads us, and watches over us!
Roman mile marker
Courtyard in the middle of the Museum
Venetian Plaza lit up at night
The Roman Pantheon
Venetian Plaza during the day
Hippodrome - where they used to have chariot races
View from the Colosseum
Arch of Triumph
Me actually inside the Colosseum
Incredible
The history that is hidden inside these walls...
It was exciting seeing this in the distance!
Narrow Roman street
Plaza of the Republic (I think)
I rarely ever drink coffee, but I got a discount with this one and I needed something to wake me up!
Katie and I eating breakfast!
