This past weekend we ventured off to rome. It was a very enjoyable trip as we saw just about everything you would want to see when you traveled there. The city was alot busier and crowded then i expected, 4 million people live there, and it reminded me alot of a city like New York. I'm pretty content I ended up in Perugia rather then Rome after making the trip there. We arrived in rome around 3 p.m. and after checking into our hotel we went out looking for familiar structures and after about a 10 minute walk we ran right into the coliseum where we got there just in time to take the last tour of the colisuem. The tour was well worth the extra $5 as we were able to skip the 30 minute wait in line. A couple interesting things I learned on the tour; over a million people died in the coliseum and the winningest gladiator ever was Maximus, who won basically every day and stayed alive for 14 straight years, he then retired and became one of the wealthiest men in Rome.
