We came, we saw, we ate pasta

Today we arrived on Civitaveccia, our port for Rome. We were up early and on the coach by 8 & it took 1.5hrs to get into Rome itself. It's hot today-very hot.

We were dropped at St Peters square but as we've been in the Vatican before, we just used this as a photo stop.


We then headed into the centre and revisited the Piazza Navona, the Pantheon and the Trevi Fountain.


By this point it was midday and the sun was getting hotter so we re-found our favourite restaurant in Rome - La Scaletta on the Piazzo della Maddelena. Victoria had her long awaited bucatini alla amatriciana. Yumm.


We've headed to the Roman Forum, but since we were last there they've introduced an entrance fee so we're not bothering. We walked the extra 200 yards to the Colesseum and the Arch of Constantine.


We've retreated to the shade again to cool down before a slow walk back to St Peters square to be picked up.
