After St. Peter's Basilica Jessy wasn't feeling too well, so she and Dillon went home for a nap. Ang, Dustin, me, and the girls headed towards the Pantheon. We got on the metro and were supposed to take a bus to the Pantheon. One person told us it was the #52 bus and one person told us it was the #42 bus. We ended up walking to the Pantheon (maybe half a mile) because we couldn't find those number buses at the stop!
But it was cool, we passed a fountain, turned right down a alley (and bought a few Fradas!) and went we exited the alley this is what we saw!
WOW! Right at the end of a regular looking alley! I love Rome!
It was small, but very pretty on the inside. So we decided to walk another block towards the Piazza Navona for some Gelato and Tartufo!
And they had some 'statues' that are really people painted. The girls wanted pictures with them!
There were fountains at each end of the Piazza.
And this is the last picture I took in Rome! A picture of a building that looked cool while we were waiting for the bus back to the metro... it wasn't 52 or 42... it was the #62 Bus! LOL! We saw some cool buildings and sites on the bus ride back, but unfortunately we didn't have more time in Rome!
We got up at about 4:15 the next morning and started our trek back to the airport. Got there with plenty of time to spare (we thought we might miss our flight the night before with the train ride times the website showed!) But we got on the flight and back to our house Friday afternoon!

Wow Aleta, looks like you all had a fantastic time. Craig and I **loved** Rome and can't wait to go back!!! I hope you threw some coins in the Trevi fountain and wished to come back to Rome!
Wow, I enjoyed your pictures, they brought back a lot of memories of our trip there. I'm so glad you got to visit Rome before coming back to the states ~~ even if it is Alaska. :) ---Love Mom Wills
