Shelly and I went to Rome for a week, we both needed a break and boy was it good trip. We pounded the streets of Rome for 5-7 hours everyday and we got to see..
Colleseum, St Peters Basilica, Roman Baths, Roman Forum, Pantheon, Palatine hill, Trevi fountain… the list is endless. Flying in and out of Cork is grand (getting out of Cork City can be difficult!! – Damn one way streets and _Badly_ sign posted roads).
We went to see Roma play in the Stadio Olympico (they won 3-0) and to see the orchestra play in the new Auditorium. The food was fantastic, the wine divine!
I have some pictures which I’ll upload at a later date. The best part was the tour of St. Peters tomb beneath the basilica – thanks to Fitzy for recommending it.
hello Ronan,
well glad you enjoyed it, St. Peter’s – it is superb. Will be hitting Limerick at the weekend for some fun and frolics. Might see you round? Mish and I will be attending the premiere of Walk the Line on Fri night if you’re available to escort?
