Italy Trip: Rome Part 3

The great thing about bloggin' about my trip, is that it has allowed me to really stretch out each post... AND give me some content for this sad, sad blog that I've been neglecting for a few months. Sorry.

So back to Rome. Did you know I celebrated my BIRTHDAY in ROME!!! How amazingly lucky was I? Let me tell you know that I am extremely spoiled and from now on I have to celebrate my birthday always in another country.

We didn't really plan anything extravagant because for pete's sake we were already in Italy. We enjoyed a few hours of sight seeing and shopping by the Spanish Steps and then leisurely made our way to a delightful dinner. Lots of carby goodness and alcohol was consumed that nightt which made it difficult for me to keep my head up at the table. Good thing the coffee in Italy is strong... so I was able to enjoy the rest of our night as we walked a long the streets of Rome.

Italy Trip: Rome Part 2

It is so hard to go through vacation pictures. When you think you are done picking selects and deleting all the weird ones where my Dad has his eyes closed and mouth wide open, there's still more to go through. It doesn't help that ALL of us (Mom, Dad, Sister, Aunte, Husband and myself) had cameras. We looked super fobby with our camera straps wrapped around our necks and our trigger fingers stiff from taking so many damn pictures.

Being in Rome was probably my favorite part of the trip. I don't know if it was because it was the first city we visited and at the moment we jumped off the plane I was already impressed by the air quality... but I instantly fell in love.

I study so much Italian art during Art School that it is kinda a trip to see it in real life. Pictures really don't do any of it justice. My pictures will make you swoon a tad... but I promise when you are actually there you might just cry.


On our way to Vatican City


St. Peter's Basilica. Bigger and better than I imagined.


I have to watch Angels and Demons again.

Italy Trip: Rome Part 1

Sorry blogger world for being so MIA for the entire month of September. It was an extremely busy month. We went to Italy, celebrated my 20+ birthday, celebrated our 2 year wedding anniversary and moved to Pasadena. I am crazy, tired and I bit overwhelmed with the entire month.

And now here we are in October and I am barely getting used to the month. Halloween is coming up and I can't hardly wait for the major Holidays to hit. Life is flying by so fast....

Anyways I've been wanting to post some pics from our amazing vacation. Son and I were so fortunate to have a really good year to afford such a trip and to also be able to experience it with my family. It was a trip of a lifetime. Hopefully we'll be able to visit this beautiful place again.


So beautiful.


Excited to have a pretty amazing room for a few nights in Rome.


Trevi Fountain. It was so funny because we came to see the fountain twice while in Rome and both times in the evening.


I don't really like pizza. But Italian pizza is pretty dang good.
