Even though by the time this gets posted, we’ll be in London, I wanted to say a little goodbye to Italy, land of...motor scooters, Smart cars, Gelato, and Penini's. Here are some pictures (some enhanced) of the few days we spent here:
The interior of the Duomo in Florence.
A view from The Colosseum.
Exiting the tombs of the Popes in St. Peter's Basilica.
St. Peter's Basilica (as seen from St. Peter's Square).
Katie works her magic to try and get some info from the Vatican guard.
Pope Benedict XVI.Actually a very dynamic speaker, I was very humbled to see him and hear him speak.
A nice view of the city and river.
St. Angelo's Castle.
A view of the Vatican museum.
I didn't know this, but the Gladiators of Ancient Rome felt the influence of the 12th man.(This was etched on one of the archways in the Colosseum.)

View from the cheap seats.
Exiting.
