More photos from our Italy trip.


My favorite thing about Rome was the water fountains with spring water all over the city.  You just needed to carry a bottle.

Oh the bruschetta!  The tomatoes were amazing over there!

The Colosseum


at the Roman Forum










The newlyweds!

Nick's brother, Chris, and his lovely girlfriend Leyda



Chris loves ruins!



Italia (1)

On June 9th we flew out to Italy to celebrate the wedding of our wonderful friends, Nick and Federica.  We had the most amazing time!  Their wedding was absolutely beautiful!  We spent a week in Rome walking all over the place, and also a day bike riding on the outskirts.  Chris and I absolutely loved our trip!  Rather than bore you with words, I will simply share photographs of our adventure.  I am going to split the pictures into a few blog posts.  Believe it or not, I am only share a small fraction the photos we took.

Tiramisu

Lasagna - the noodles were extremely thin
