Getting TO/AROUND: When we were staying in Gaeta, Italy, for two months, Allan's sister Jayne came to visit us for about ten days, and she flew from Chicago to Rome. We drove from Gaeta to Rome's (Fiumicino) Leonardo Da Vinci Airport. It and Milan's Malpensa are Italy's two most important hubs of transportation for "long haul" flights.
We had it all planned to meet her at the gate, and I was to take the photo. The airport is about 18 miles from Rome's center, and if you had to take a taxi, it would cost about $35-40 and would take around 40 minutes.
The big moment came, her plane was announced, and we stood waiting. As she came out, looking around helplessly, Allan ran up and kissed her on the cheek...I snapped the picture and was able to capture all the emotion.
A note of warning: Don't be alarmed if you see military people armed in the airport. It is part of the security there. The first time that I saw it, I was somewhat frightened.

jillzi Tue Jun 23, 2009 20:57 UTC What a great page about Rome. Sjo honest, and helpful. The tourist trap tips are especially good. Love the culture information, warning, and history. | hopang Wed May 27, 2009 14:17 UTC Colosseum, Pantheon, Fontana Di Trevi, Castel Sant' Angelo, Piazza Navona and Spanish Steps are certainly great tourist attractions in the city of Rome. Bring back fond memories of our trip to that city several years ago. ~ho & pang | craic Mon May 18, 2009 10:44 UTC i was homesick for rome but your page didn't help - it made me more homesick | Yaqui Fri May 8, 2009 19:57 UTC Looking at your pages is always a wonderful personal tour!
