Trip to Rome, Italy
February 2007
It is difficult
to put in words the wonderful experience Cathy and I had in Rome. For
someone who loves ancient history, architecture, and great food--this was
a dream come true.
I have been to
twenty-three countries and I would have to say this is probably one of the
top two places I have been.
