For the past 2 days we have been in the lovely country of Italy. It is beautiful!
Yesterday we docked at Naples and started the day by hiking up Mt. Vesuvius, which was QUITE exhausting. After that we went into Sorrento and walked around and ate lunch. Then we ended our day by visiting Pompeii. We went on a long but fascinating tour, which of course I loved.
Today we went to Rome! This was the port that I had been excited about the most. It was amazing! We visited the Colosseum, we saw the Circus Maximus, and I threw a coin into the Trevi Fountain just like Lizzie McGuire! And last we went to the Vatican, which was spectacular. The statues and paintings and tapestries were gorgeous, and the Sistine Chapel was so incredible. So we technically visited 2 countries today!
Tomorrow we will dock at La Spezia, where we will visit Florence to shop and see some of Michelangelo's other works such as David. I miss all of you and hopefully I will hear from some of you soon!
