Rome Day 2

The Pantheon a beautiful church that only took 7 years to build it is amazing to thing with the intricate details of the ceiling that it only took that long to get it built

Today we saw more and more of Rome. We started out walking to the Spanish steps and then to the Trevi fountain. They were great! At the Spanish Steps I ran up to the top twice the first time just to see if I could do it and the second time to get a picture. The steps are amazing and our guide had warned us about pick pockets. There were a lot of them that I saw, but luckily no one in our group had any problems.

At the Trevi fountain we spent about 30 minutes just looking around the fountain. It was more beautiful then I had imagined. I think I could have spent a couple of hours there just walking around and people watching. We got some gelato before moving on to the next site which was the Pantheon. We then saw several of the alblucus that were stolen from the Egyptians during the reign of the Roman Empire. There are 230 of the ablucus's in Rome and only 2 are left in Egypt. I think soon one day the Egyptians are going to call then stolen and demand there return.

Talk to you soon
