Quick note from Rome

From France and Italy 2010

Hidy ho from Rome - just a quick note because I'm not using my computer while here, I probably won't post much more until I get back home.  Rome is crazy though - it's amazing how the old and the new are so integrated. 

Jose, Patty and I have gone a WHOLE bunch of places, so far mostly in the southern part of the center (I guess) - tomorrow there is a parade for their equivalent of the 4th of July in that area so we did that today and tomorrow we'll be hanging out in the general area of the Vatican.

Tonight we're going to see a show where they'll be performing famous arias.

The food here is incredible.  I'm glad I'm only here for a short while, otherwise I'd gain 500 pounds.
