Arriving in Rome

















We made it into Rome yesterday (Sunday) in the afternoon. The flight was a bit late but it was a pretty uneventful one. Both Lauren and I slept pretty well on the plane which made the trip and staying up to a "normal" bed time easier. The cab driver dropped us off on a busy street and pointed us down an allyway to the hotel which was a bit odd, but it was clearly a tourist area so we headed down the ally and found our hotel just a few feet away. Our hotel is only a couple of minutes walk to the Pantheon in one direction and Trevi Fountain in the other direction. We visited both yesterday as well as the only Gothic church in Rome, Santa Maria alla Minerva. We ended the day by eating dinner in the Piazza in front of the Pantheon and getting some Gelato on the way home. It was a great start to our Honeymoon.
