January felt like a long month! It probably felt that way between catching up post holidays and vacation and also the weather. We took advantage of some lazy days. We also spent some time catching up with family and friends.
We had a fun afternoon with the Wallace cousins. We enjoyed dinner with the Parisi’s and we had an awesome brunch with my college friends and their families. We also celebrated Kiley’s 13th birthday! It was fun to have time to enjoy some of our very favorite people!
We headed home today! Even with a massive blizzard going on in Boston we were still able to leave Rome (via London) and only had a one hour delay! We did have pizza in London, because we’ve had it every day!
I’ve been sharing a few pictures each day on Instagram. We loved every minute of this trip and can’t wait until our next adventure!
Today was an early day- we headed to the Vatican for the Pope’s weekly audience! It was pretty cool to see how many people were there for so many different countries. He was treated like a rockstar and was pretty funny too!
We then went to the Hard Rock Cafe. It was our third attempt but the kids had been so great about going with the flow that we figured it would be a great last day treat.
Then we headed to the Vatican Museum. It was huge! Everything was beautiful including the Sistine Chapel. It was so crowded!
We missed out on going into St. Peter’s Basilica because the lines were so long. But we took a bunch of pictures of St. Peter’s Square all decorated. It was so pretty!
