Roaming around Rome!

The Fountain of the Turtles! Can you see the turtles at the top of the fountain?
The Colosseum, 2,000 years old!

All around Rome we saw "SPQR," which means Senatus Populus Que Romanus, and has the stamp of the government since ancient times!


We found the Cat Sanctuary. About 150-200 cats live here in these ancient ruins in the middle of the city. They are fed and taken care of. This is the site where Julius Caeser was killed.

Inside the famous Pantheon building. The circle above us is open to the sky. Good thing it wasn't raining!

We are eating gelato in front of the Pantheon building.

Strolling on the Piazza Navona


Arch of Titus (Arco di Tito)

Ancient Roman ruins (the Forum)

Can you see another "SPQR?"

The Altar of the Nation





One of the exits of the Colossesum






Under the Colosseum where the gladiators and animals waited "backstage"
