Where did we leave off?

Our journey left off at St. Peter's, but we are going to fast forward a bit.

Bre had her heart set on the Trevi Fountian, so there we went. See, we really didn't have a game plan, just a tour book we left in the hotel and a map. We thought we'd wing it, since everyone knows the obvious things to see, and then you find the rest on the way.

It's a little back-lit, but it is me. Legend has it, if you throw a coin over your shoulder and it goes in the fountain, you will return to Rome. If you throw a second and it gets in, you will fall in love in Roma. Third and you are going to marry an Italian, or someone from Italy.
I got all three coins in. Bre threw her first, then got distracted and forgot the other two. Samwise also got his in. Check out his journal for that story.

This is the Trevi at night... it is the only full picture I have, so we are a bit out of chronological order, but you still get to see the Trevi!

As I was saying about walking along and seeing things... this is the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier, which we practically fell over the top of. We saw people walking up the stairs and thought "hey, that looks like it may be important. Let's go."
I kneeled on the ground to fish out my big camera and was scolded in Italian by a guard. No sitting here, folks.
This is the view from the top of the Tomb. Bre and I are walking down the street, and suddenly we see the Colosseum. And there it is, to the right in the picture. To the left are some bits of the ancient Roman city.
