Today we went on the bus..or rather tried to...after 5 went by full we got a refund and caught the metro to the Colloseum. We walked and walked through the Metro, still filthy and even more crowded and emerged in front of the wonderful ruins. A queue lasting an hour saw us admitted to the inner sanctum, full of the history we all know.
We then did get on the bus for a tour of the city. Impressions? Dirty, unremarkable except for the statues and ruins and small footpaths filled with too many people. No coins in the fountain for us we decided!
Hmmm! does not make me want to visit Rome....hope you were having as much fun as it looked on your birthday....really enjoyed the photos. Loved your mosaic.....enjoy Hong Kong and look forward to seeing birthday present. Brigid
