"Rome, "The Eternal City"" a Rome Travel Page by slabeaume

When I joined my daughter after her semester of school at Czech Tech, we took the train to several places. On the list was, of course, Rome!

We made Rome our base for three days and four nights. Our first full day here was spent walking for hours and hours, during a heat wave, seeing the well known tourist sites on the east side of the river. The next day we elected not to train on up to Florence or elsewhere like we had planned to; instead, we headed to a beach near Rome to recoup and relax.

The final day, we toured St. Peter's and saw the Colosseum at night. Even with the very efficient subway system, we still wore ourselves out walking, but at least we didn't have luggage to tote around for three whole days!
