Rom

We had already decided before the holiday, not to go by car in the Italian capital. We wanted to avoid this stress. That's why we had booked the apartment outside of Rome and hoped that everything else would be somehow. And then it was really that easy. From Santa Marinella there is a train that goes directly to Stazione San Pietro and from there it is only about 650 m walking distance and we already are standing directly in front of St. Peter's Basilica. A very long line of people is standing in front of the security gate. Karl has to return because of his fax knives. He looks at the hallowed halls of the Catholic Church after Mary returns. Dave and I go up to the dome. Then I lose Dave behind me and come alone at the top. From here I have a fantastic view of St. Peter's Square and Rome. In search of Dave I go the countless and steep steps of the dome a second time and find him again at the entrance to the lift! After that we take a hopon hopoff bus for a city tour and a visit to the colloseum and then we head back to Santa Marinella by train for only € 18.40 for all of us.Read more
