Mary's Travels
We left the hotel and took the subway... There are only two in Rome because they keep digging and finding ancient ruins... It took us straight to the Colosseum where they were on strike... So our tour guide just took us to other ruins and gave us some history of the Colosseum without going inside. We broke early for lunch to kill time so Michael get us new reservations for the Colosseum. It was back open when we finished lunch (where we got a fabulous meal deal). We went to the Colosseum and dreamed about being Lizzie McGuire. We all met up to leave, except for a kid named Julian didn't come back on time. Us kids waited as the adults searched the area for him. After an hour, he came back. He fell asleep on a bench. Typical Julian. We went back to the hotel to get cleaned up for Mass and dinner. We went to Mass at the church where Theodore Ratisbonne, a founder of the Sisters of Sion, saw a vision of Mary. It was so cool. We had to hit up the gift shop. After that we went to dinner where we celebrated our last night on the trip. There were lots of pictures. We mossied around Rome for a bit and headed back to the hotel to pack up and go to sleep.
