Hope everyone had a wonderful Thanksgiving! We did. It was nice spending time with family. But now that they are gone, I have time to share some more pictures from our honeymoon in Rome.
We traveled really light, with only those two bags. It was nice not having to haul tons of bags around.
Made it to Rome and about to take the train to the hotel.
We arrived at 7:30 am and to try and get use to the time change we headed right out to see some sights. No nap.
We started at the classic sights in town, the Forum.
I always like to get audioguides so that I know what I am looking at.
Fall in Rome.
The Forum was huge and attached to Palatine Hill.
Then we headed to the Colosseum.
That night we enjoyed the garden at the hotel and ate some food we picked up at a market.
We visited the National Museum of Rome.
The Trevi Fountain.
Lunch in a square.
Paninis.
Gelato.
Bread, meat and cheese in the hotel room for dinner.
Lunch near the Vatican.
We could see the Vatican City wall across the street while we dinned.
Homemade ravioli and seafood risotto.
The Vatican Museum.
St. Peter's.
More gelato.
Out shopping by the Spanish Steps.
We took a train to Naples and Pompeii.
We got on the wrong train from Naples to Pompeii and got stranded at a random stop in Italy. It was easily fixed though and we were headed in the right direction 15 minutes later.
We ate a picnic lunch in front of the ruins of Pompeii.
Pompeii was by far one of the coolest things I have ever seen.
A whole city just stopped in time.
The brothel was even still there.
That was our trip! I hope you enjoyed all the pictures of our trip. We had a blast!!
It looked like such a fun trip! How long were you there? I love the idea of taking your honeymoon a few months after the wedding and giving yourselves time to settle in at home first. Great photos - thanks for sharing.
