When in Rome...

We had just been to Rome with the girls so there wasn't anything we really needed to see. We decided to just walk around.  We never even got on the subway.  We probably walked 5 or 6 miles.  We saw all the standard Rome sites. 
Trevi Fountain- one of the most crowded places in all of Rome, and they were doing work on the fountain so part of it was covered in scaffolding.  It is beautiful though.
 

The Pantheon.  This used to be a pagan temple filled with statues, now it is a Catholic church.  It has a hole in the top of the dome to let in the sun.  It is a really neat building, I just wish the Roman statues were still in it.

Piazza Navona.  This is where we had gelatto and also Tartufo.  Both delicious Italian ice cream treats.

Matt and some Roman ruins.

The Colosseum

The Spanish Steps.
