Roman Forum
My kids did "Julius Caesar" this year, so it was awesome to see the very spot where those events occurred (no one would reenact "Friends, Romans, countrymen..." on the spot where it probably happened, but photos were taken; stay tuned... Continue reading

Borghese Museum
A very long, hot walk to find shoes for Rob (whose shoes he has worn for about 6 years have officially collapsed from Roman roads) turned up nothing under $225. Hm. We made it to the museum (where many of... Continue reading
