| When in Rome... | Rome was an awesome city! I especially loved getting a chance to visit the Vatican. I got blessed by the Pope again (the first time was at World Youth Day in Toronto). I also got a chance to attend mass in St. Peters, which was pretty amazing. We of course saw all the sites. The Colluseum, The Pantheon, The Roman Forum... you get the idea. I also went to the Opera (awesome) and ate one of the best meals of my life at Due Collonne. Seriously, when in Rome, dine like the Romans!. From Rome Noah and I hopped on a train and made are way eastward to the province of Abbruzzo to see my family's home town of Montenero. |

| **If you are ever in Rome, read Angels and Demons by Dan Brown. I ended up buying a copy the day before I left and it was sooo cool since the whole book takes place there. I would recomend reading it before you get there though cause then when you go to all these places in the book, you will see them completly diffrently! Either way its still pretty cool! | |||||||||||||||||||||||||
