Myself and Anthony have been to Rome twice now, once by ourselves and once with my mother in law. Here are some photo's of both occasions.
I couldn't explain the feeling I got when in Rome if someone paid me, its one of those "You'd have to be there things" but what I can say is that I have never experienced a city like it in my life, its so vastly majestic and rich in history and culture that when I first arrived I was a bit overwhelmed. And my partner being an artist acted like he had died and went to heaven, he couldn't believe the grounds in which he was walking.
The first time around we got to visit the Vatican amongst the colosseum etc, Let me tell ya, You have not lived until you walk the halls of the Vatican and then arrive in the Sistine Chapel, the paintings take over you and almost bring you to tears, its nothing like looking in a school book! Any artists out there that haven't been, save save save! Its breathtaking!
The best part of our trip was the day we went roaming around the city and walked for absolutely hours visiting museums, eating gelato and dipping our feet into a beautiful lake to cool them down. We took a horse and carriage ride while kissing and holding hands, we watched the sun go down and by late evening my partner told me to pick the place to eat, so I picked the tackiest awesome place I could find called the trevi. It had birds and fish tanks and so many cool things hanging from the ceiling, it was so cool! I had pizza while Anthony had lasagne. Afterwards we walked to my favourite spot in rome, the Trevi fountain. The trevi is the most magical fountain I have ever seen and in His nerve wrecked voice Anthony sat me down in a cosy pretty spot and he proposed! :) I said "Of course!!"
Best experience ever!...Like Ever!!
