When in Rome...

Does that joke ever get old? No comment...

We walked all over Rome today. Our journey started at an open air market(after a very cozy bus ride), where we tasted cheese, olives, prociutto, browsed fruits and vegetables, and of course tried on hats!





We then walked to the very spot where Julius Cesar was stabbed in the back:


We then walked to the Piazza Navona, with the beautiful Brazilian consulate and an ancient fountain:



We then walked (notice a theme?) to the Church of Saint Matthew:


We then walked to the Pantheon, whose dome was built around 70 AD...


Then we walked to Trevi fountain and had some lunch. 

And then we walked to...


The colleseum! Where we had a guided tour. 


The students are relieved that this is (might be) their last group photo:


And then we walked to the Roman Forum, also with our guide, and continued to contemplate the lives and activities of the ancients. 




And now we are back at the hotel resting our feet before our last Roman dinner!

A photo of our final dinner and "awards banquet"(yes, they all got awards):
