In July we left for a 2+ week European vacation. We flew all night and arrived in Rome, early in the next morning. It was imposible to sleep on the plane. We dropped off our luggage at the hotel, and decided to try and stay up as long as possible to help fight the jet lag. BAD IDEA

Inside St. Peter's Basilica

Ancient Rome

In Rome we toured St. Peter's and St. Paul's Basilica, and in Venice we saw St. Mark's Basilica. We saw where three of the twelve disciples are buried. WOW!

The next day we took a day long bus tour and visited Naples and Pompeii. Pompeii was amazing. Don't miss it.
