2013 09 Rome - day 2

The Colosseum.  Nicky had arranged tickets in advance, and an audio guide downloaded to mobile phones before we even left the UK, so we didn't have to queue, and could take in the Colosseum at our own pace - well done Nicky

We had a lovely lunch here (although they did try and over-charge us)

Great parking

 A Roman temple, but open to the skies

Day 1 - to the Vatican

Amazing mosaic floor

and in more detail

Just like quilt designs

 Marble split and used to made a block with almost a line of symmetry

2D painting

My favourite room. 

Other may have been looking up, me? Eyes to the floor the whole time- so many patchwork designs

Saint Peter's
