Thanks for all your comments

Thanks for all your comments.  That was a different location for an earthquake.  We have been eating plenty of gelato!!!  Beautiful food too - just Finn hasn't been able to manage a whole plate full yet!!!  Too many tomatoes he says.

We have visited the colloseum today and wandered around the Roman forum, Palentine Hill and that area.
It is so hot.  Finn had melted well before 10.30am!!!!

This afternoon we toured around Rome on a hop on hop off bus.  Our ticket is valid for 48 hours so we will hop off at places tomorrow.

    Hi Deb & Finn, wish I could teleport over to be with you. I think I would enjoy some heat and gelato. I'm intrigued, what flavour gelato's can you get?
    The ambience of the colloseum must have been amazing, being up close and able to touch the stone.
    Enjoy exploring xoxo

    We are also envious, it sounds absolutely devine - being in Rome that is not the gelato's (well actually the gelato's as well! Looking forward to hearing you next adventure.
    we are off to Taupo for the day on Saturday to catch up with Vicky and kids.

So many wonderful sites to see and experience. We biked through Rome which was quite an experience! At training on Wednesday we focused on been strong in defence, the lads did very well.

    Hi travellers
    Sounds to me as though there is a heat wave. The hop on and off bus sounded great from the sounds of it. Was it in Rome where the nun's? gave up their seat for you?
    Love Mum
