Off to Rome

Headed to Rome today via Qatar Airlines ... and, well, this certainly is the way to travel. Individual pods for sleeping, top-notch service, home cooked meals (yes, a chef on the plane to prepare meals!!).

After a 4 hour flight, we had a layover at the beautiful Qatar Airport. Since we had a 3 hour layover, we checked out the airport, and needless to say, there was a lot to see!!!! And a LOT of money here. The shopping at the airport is like Beverly Hills on steroids.

Gold everywhere, high-end fashion, sports cars, interior gardens.....and our favorite, an Oreo Bakery Cafe that serves only Oreos made into elaborate desserts that have gold dusted on each cookie!!!! Everything was over the top.

Landed in Rome after a 6 hour flight and headed to the seaside town of Ostia, Italy 🇮🇹Read more
