Note: Writing Moon Ventures blog under here because my Moon Ventures blog site wants to be Italian and unable to download pictures.

Left the house at 4am on Sunday am and landed in Rome at 8am Monday am (9 hours ahead of Tucson) for a total of 19 hours. We are taking a Perillo Tour of Italy for the next 12 days. Being our first trip to Italy, we wanted to see all the highlights so thought it would be easiest with a tour. They picked us up at the airport and delivered us to our hotel. Our first day is open, so we headed out to walk the streets. Here are some of the sights we saw.

We finally found our way back to the hotel and are resting. Haven’t had much sleep plus it was quite warm here. Tonight we have dinner with the group then tomorrow we start the serious touring. 

Sorry about my normal blog site, but just unable to get it to work correctly so this will do for now.
