Third day in Italy: Rome

Hey!! Hope you all are doing awesome! Rome is simply magnificent. I cannot believe that tomorrow I am going to Florence and Siena and Piza! Wow! So today we had a lot of fun. We went to the Colosseum, St. Peter in chains, the Roman Forum...andddd I think that's all. Let me just say that the weather was about 100 degrees F. Yea. 100 degrees. Hot. So, I had sweat dripping down my back and 80% of the Colosseum is in the sun. I must say though that the Colosseum was AMAZING! AMAZING!! This huge building was looming in front of me. I couldn't believe it!! The Forum was 100% in the sun. But still amazing. So cool how we could walk through the actual marketplace of the ancients. Wowza! The St. Peter in chains was also neat...I didn't realize I needed to have my shoulders covered and had to wear a robe. Fashionable.... well the day turned out to be nice. I love Rome but love the U.S too. Being in Europe makes you realize how thankful you are for your home and your family/ friends.

Gorgeous!

So, this is in a church called St. Peter in chains. These chains are supposedly the chains that were around Peter's wrists. They magically "fused together" when the priest held them up.

Haha Kendall and I were playing around with Kendall's camera...hehe

I love this pic! So pretty

Wow. This was taken by Kendall...I swear that she will become a photographer someday. So pretty!

The Colosseum

Colosseum. That maze like thing is where they would let the gladiators loose with the animals. 

The Colosseum. Amazing how this is all still intact!

The next 10 pics are of the Colosseum

These are pretty cool ruins

Look at those columns in the background!

So pretty :)

Kendall and I!

These columns used to be a temple to the Roman sun god.

Crazyyyy how these are still intact! WOW!
