Finale in Rome


Upper floor level of Colloseum built over underground grid to set the stage of the games

Tom was ecstatic when he found his initials engraved into stone inside the Colloseum

Picture of dusk...the horse and rider look like they are riding on the treetops from this angle.  Tall structure on right is Trajan's column

Roman Ruins

I loved the shape and color of the angels wings.  Wall painting within the Vatican museum

People waiting to touch Peter's feet in St. Peter's Basilica.  His feet are super smooth and worn as a result.


Pantheon...so majestic, and in a fairly small piazza(square)
