Italia!!!!!

I sincerely apologize for my lack of posting.  Turns out that this semester I have bitten off a bit more than I can chew and have been really busy.  I just got back from a trip to Italy so I thought I would post some pictures.  Ok....so maybe I was prompted by my mom.  So here are some of the highlights.  

Pisa

 Amalfi Coast 

 Our rental car -- a puke yellow Fiat Panda (I think we almost drove the wheels off of it!)

 My favorite picture of the Amalfi Coast

 Pompeii

 More Pompeii

 Vatican - there were so many sculptures and paintings



 St. Peter's Basilica


 Colosseum



Spanish Steps

 The gorgeous Trevi Fountain

 Venice - Piazza San Marco (there were tons of people)

 Gondola Ride

 Venice


Our trip was super short but we crammed in a lot of sight seeing.  My favorite things were David in Florence and the Trevi Fountain in Rome.  Oh....the Sistine Chapel was pretty amazing too.  We already have a list of places we need to see next time.
