We are sitting in our hotel room in Rome enjoying a brownie and some great red wine. The past two days or so have been wonderful-not only because we were able to make it here, but because we have done so much in so little time. A recap:
-Flight was good-I slept for first time EVER on a plane.
-Don't ever check baggage into Rome's airport. Biggest nightmare to collect your bag(s)
-Tour of Vatican City, museums and St. Peter's was incredible! Our tour guide, Marta, was fabulous.b
-Tour of Coliseum sucked but the place is historic and magical. You must see it once in your life
-We took the long route (we were so damn lost it was crazy) to find the Pantheon, Piazza Navona and the Trevi fountain. To think that the Romans built and rebuilt the Pantheon before the 2nd century was over is crazy. Not to get too political, but we being told by our fearless ass hat politicians that we cannot build a fence on our Southern border. It's insulting and sad.
-We ran into a doctor that specializes in a new type of high resolution imaging for breast cancer detection. C did not tell him that she was battling the disease but it was strange.
-We just had a few slices of pizza at a great little spot sitting next to a cute little toddler who looked very similar to Christina at the same age. And she acted like C as well. She was curious and on the move while her parents tried to down a few slices of pizza. Her name? Christina! We looked at each other in amazement.
Although she now wears wigs, fake eyelashes and paints her eyebrows in each morning, we both caught a glimpse of Christina the way she is. Beautiful and bratty. And I love her for it:). More to come from Capri!
