This morning we left early to see the Vatican. I didn,t think I would enjoy it as much as I did. Lots of walking, Many old statues, paintings, and tapestries. So much interesting history. We saw the Popes Tombs, very eerie. The Sistine Chapel, on the small side compared to St Peter,s Basillica. Yet awesome to view in person. We are tired and lots of sore muscles. We returned tonight to the same quaint outdoor cafe. We enjoyed wine, minestrone soup, pizza, and a small dessert. All were excellent. Interesting though, you can not order dinner until 7:00 pm , but you can sit there and drink until 7pm. We also saw the Coloseum. Very Big and amazing. So old yet still standing.
Pam got one of their two bags. The other one is missing and no where to be found. We are hoping and praying it will make the ship, but it looks slim. Tommorrow we move on to Venice, taking the train across the countryside.
The weather is warm , but not too bad. Just very humid, we are soaking through our clothes! Pictures will have to follow. Ciao for now

WOW!! Sounds fun!! With all that walking it's a good thing you got special shoes and socks to be prepared!!
Did Pam and Eldon do your niffty trick where both people packed and then each person took out half their stuff and put it in the other person's suitcase? I hope so, that will make it so they don't have to buy quite as many clothes to make up for the missing bag.
Have Fun!!
Hi you guys, sounds like you are having lots of fun. It's to bad about the lost luggage, Pam has had her share of troubles lately. Hope the rest of the trip goes well for them and you too. We are back from camping in CA, it was sooo nice there, cooler. Have a great time, it is humid here now.
