Roma - finally

Today the kids went to Vatican City and tomorrow they head off to Venice, but I finally got some pictures from Shea.  Casey and Shea seem to agree that Rome is prettier than Paris and that Gelato is the best thing ever although Shea is enjoying the wider range of gluten free pasta available. 

 Kiwi (green), Strawberry (pink) and Melon (I think)  Apparently it is expected that you always get 3 flavors together.

 The Coliseum outside

  The Coliseum inside

 Not sure - looks like the Monument to Vittorio Emanuele II in the far background

 Shea and Casey at the Trevi Fountain

 Throwing a coin in Trevi Fountain.  Apparently most people throw it backwards.  One can watch "Three Coins in the Fountain"from 1954 to see the fountain.

 Casey drinking from the dual purpose fountain.  You can fill your water bottle from the bottom or plug the bottom and use it as a drinking fountain.

Carbonara - Shea's favorite
