On the tour bus again, heading to the hotel in Rome


Appartently you can never get enough pizza!!

Here we are on the Spanish Steps in Rome...people, people EVERYWHERE!!!

This is how people park......the cars are like this everywhere.....it makes you wonder how they get out of their parking spots? Do they wait and everyone leave the same time????


MAD DRIVERS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Notice that nobody is in any certain lane???? A short drive to Rome.

Once we left St Francis, we continued to walk to the top of the hill, the streets were all like this, sometimes we didn't know if it was a street or a walkway....until we had to move to the side for a car!!!

The gangs all here...in Assisi this time!!


This is the view of Assisi on the hillside - beautiful....what a view when we got there!

St. Francis of Assisi Basicilla. St Francis was the Patron Saint of Animals as well as the Patron Saint of Italy.

We all gathered for lunch in a cafeteria type place - all kinds of food to choose from, better eat now before we explore Assisi!

We left the hotel in Firenze early and had a little bit of a drive to Assisi, just long enough to catch a few more zzzz's......once in Assisi, we had a tour of a ceramic factory - everything hand painted! They also sold wine and olive oils - they had taste testing too!!
