So here's the next half of our trip. The day after graduation we hopped a plane for Rome. Rome was hot and crowded for the end of October. Much less romantic than the first time we visited but the fact that I was so tired and emotional and dragging around a 3 week old baby could have had something to do with it.
The first day Devin thankfully insisted we sleep in while his parents went out sightseeing. The walked all over the Colosseum and Roman Forum while we stayed in bed until noon. We then met up and toured a church, had lunch and went on an evening walking tour through the city which included the Pantheon, Trevi Fountain, Spanish Steps and Piazza Navona among others.
The next day we took a 3 hour tour of Vatican city where we walked through the museum, Sistine Chapel and St. Peter's Basilica. Finishing our day with a 2 mile walk back to our hotel.
Our last day in Rome we went to Circus Maximus and saw more ruins. Then we went searching for gifts/souveniers for the kids before catching a taxi to the airport to fly back to London.
