I think I found the solutions to my posting problems: Vlog! Check out my video blog from the rooftop of our hotel in Rome.
Other information:
- Gelato and pastry shops are ridiculously abundant here. I am going for a vacation record of 8 different flavors of gelato in 8 days, at 8 different shops. Shouldn’t be hard.
- We visited the Roman Forum and Colosseum yesterday. I still cant wrap my head around the fact that were walking around an area that is over 2000 years old!!!
- We have had absolutely INCREDIBLE weather here and we enjoy waking up to the sounds of the clanging bell at the basilica across the street from us.
- I fell flat on my face when we got to Rome. It was wretched, and I have the battle wounds to prove it! Details to come in another vlog!
Were off! Today were seeing the Spanish Steps, Trevi Fountain and The Pantheon. Oh, and eating MORE GELATO! I cant get enough!
Try yogurt flavored gelato…you won’t be disappointed!!
Awesome vlog! I LOVED the Colosseum, it was so amazing!!!
Love your Vlog. I double clicked and it opened in Youtube very quickly if that helps anyone else.
Have fun!!!! Wow Ciao Bella!
Oooh, fun video! I’d love to go to Rome someday. Can’t wait to see all your pictures.
BEAUTIFUL scenic view of Rome! Love the vlog
love the vlog! i dream of one day going to rome. i can’t wait to see all your pictures! have fun and eat more than 8 flavors of gelato! i would. 2 a day! hahaha.
whatever views i saw in the background were insane. you are *so* lucky! (try to find sweet basil gelato!) also–your midwest accent is really cute; the way you say “beerrrrrs” made me giggle.
great Vlog! its always fun to see bloggers vlog, it kind of brings them to life! have fun in Italy!
Aww! Loved the vlog! Beautiful view from the rooftop! I love your 8 gelatos in 8 days goal!
Those views are awesome. Glad you posted a video.
I remember being amazed too at how old everything is there and that it is still standing. You are smart to be there now. I went in august several years ago and it was so hot. Almost all I ate was gelato.
What an adorable video! You have such a cute voice. Oh lord, the gelato in Rome is crazy good. I remember eating gelato daily just because you couldn’t resist it! Enjoy!
so pretty! love the view. you two must be having so much fun!!!
Kristin, my love!!! Greetings from Texas – hope you and Ben are having a wonderful time. Tell him I said hi!!! Will miss you next weekend tailgating in Iowa City! (No midnight grilled cheese stand for you!!)
I’m so excited that you’re seeing beautiful Italy. You will love the Vatican, and if you haven’t tried Nutella-flavored gelato, you must. And find a focacceria that sells lots of different flavors of focaccia bread. Yummmm…
Anyways, so excited to hear all the details when you get back, and of course email me your photo album. Miss you! Ciao LG!!
OMG! You are so cute! I love your vlogs. Great way to get a quick idea what you guys are up to. You have the cutest nose! Enjoy the rest of your time away. We miss you but look forward to all your pictures and adventures when you return. Ciao!
you are adorable my dear. LOVING these Vlogs. Keep them coming. (I also watched Vlog #2!) SOOO sorry about your accident. Are you re-thinking the descision to have the backpack?! On my trip to Greece (coincidentally my best vaca ever posted this AM!!) I used a backpack like yours and it was god-awful to carry. 2 years later on a trip to France I used a rolly suitcase, which was better on my back, but worse on stairways (like in the metro and what not!) Clearly there are pros and cons to each.
You hotel rooftop looks incredible. Ciao!!
