Rome (Tour 1)

First full day in Rome we had a private guide for half the day.  We went to the Colosseum first and then to the Roman Forum.  Pictures don't really do Rome justice....amazing how advanced they were and how old everything is.

The Roman Forum

Where Julius Caesar was cremated

After our tour we did some walking and exploring on our own....the Pantheon.  This was really amazing.
