That's how close we were to Pope Benedict for the angelus at his summer house in Castle Gandolfo (about 15 miles south of Rome)

It was Alicia's birthday... we might have had a little too much wine - enough said!

Rome Day 1 and part of Day 2
Our first "litro de vino della casa" (liter of house wine)... mmmmm Italian wine...
Jon Paul and I in front of the Pantheon - a location we did not see last time we were in Rome
Thanks to fellow COTL founder, Anne's suggestion, we found this gelato place that had at least 50 flavors - probably more... I tried 3 :) SOOO delicious!
Jon Paul and I standing in front of the most amazing church in the world (in my point of view - out of the churches I've seen :)
Mom and Dad's first impression as they walked in to St. Peter's Basilica. They were quite impressed though the picture doesn't capture it perfectly!
