Just the fact that I am in Rome is unbelievable! The Colosseum is real with all it's glory and proud history!! The Forum screams out all it's gossip and secrets as you pass though! Paletine Hill with it's beauty and refreshing smell of olive trees and flower gardens ushers you through to an amazing view of Rome"s skyline!! THIS is how our guide made me feel as he shuttled us through the crowds His name escapes my brain but the experience he gave me I will never forget Take the tour, you won't regret it!
