After lunch we went to an exhibit called R3 wind which was a tour, movie, and exhibit about what ancient Rome use to be like. It was fun for the kids and good for the adults in that it bought us an hour+ of air conditioning. We left the "tour" and bought tickets at the Palentine enterance for the Palentine/Colosseum tour. With tickets in hand we passed all the crowds and walked right into the colosseum. We spent about an hour walking around and then took off for a aelf guided walking tour. We started at the Pantheon and then to Plaza Narvona, to the Trevi Fountain and then to the Spanish steps. All of us were hungry and luckily we found a restaurant called Aroma. We had a great meal at there but the best part was the owner Frederico who was really friendly. The kids just loved Frederico and asked if we could come back tomorrow...we'll see. On the way to find a cab we stopped at a recommended gellato place. Tony ordered a monster cone that had 3 smaller cones and 6 cookies, 2 mini spoons and decorations. The guy told him not to get it but he said he could "lhandle it". All of us were laughing since it was so big. We had to wash up afterwards since we were all covered in gellato from Tony's cone. We got the heck out of there and finally caught a cab home. Once we got home we all took showers and passed out. Tomorrow we plan to hit the Palentine area and St. Peters Cathedral. We will see if our feet are up to it. Until then...Ciao!
