Rebecca Travels to Europe: When in Rome...
http://rebeccatravelstoeurope.blogspot.com/2008/07/when-in-rome.html
Wednesday, July 2, 2008. Ciao my loyal readers! I am now in Rome, a glorious, hot, beautiful city! I took some night shots of the Ponte Vecchio and the Duomo, I love experimenting with my camera when the subjects are so interesting and attractive! We had no real plans for today, but decided just to walk, enjoy the city and perhaps get in a few attractions. Of course we started our journey with pizza. (I have gotten very used to pizza for lunch and pasta for dinner. it is just perfect! We stopped in four ...

Rebecca Travels to Europe: The End
http://rebeccatravelstoeurope.blogspot.com/2008/07/end.html
Thursday, July 10, 2008. And both that morning equally lay. In leaves no step had trodden black. Oh, I kept the first for another day! Yet knowing how way leads on to way,. I doubted if I should ever come back. I shall be telling this with a sigh. Somewhere ages and ages hence:. Two roads diverged in a wood, and I—. I took the one less traveled by,. And that has made all the difference." - Robert Frost. Http:/ rebeccastravels.site.shutterfly.com/. If you have the opportunity to visit any of the places I ...

Rebecca Travels to Europe: Tuscany...
http://rebeccatravelstoeurope.blogspot.com/2008/07/tuscany.html
Tuesday, July 1, 2008. The fourth one was one of our favorites, just a bolognese (meat) sauce, but it was perfect! Our final sample was some long curly pasta in a spicy red sauce. I ate all of them, so even the ones that were not my favorite, I still enjoyed! For our main course, as if the pasta wasn't enough, we had steak in a blueberry sauce. We basically licked all of the sauce off the plate; it was that good and we just didn't want any of it to go to waste! The train ride itself was worth it! After l...

Rebecca Travels to Europe: All Roads Lead to Rome
http://rebeccatravelstoeurope.blogspot.com/2008/07/all-roads-lead-to-rome.html
Saturday, July 5, 2008. All Roads Lead to Rome. It is basically true that once upon a time all roads did lead to Rome. Rome was the center of the trading world at one time; the center of great empires and the roads built by the emperors all led to Rome. Today we walked on the Appian Way, one of the main roads that led into the city! Once you get the system, it is not too hard! There are several different catacombs in the area; we visited the catacombs of San Callisto. After purchasing our tickets, we...

Rebecca Travels to Europe: June 2008
http://rebeccatravelstoeurope.blogspot.com/2008_06_01_archive.html
Sunday, June 29, 2008. Yep, I'm so at home here, so comfortable walking these streets, I feel like I could just take off my shoes and walk barefoot like I do at my own home. (And I just might do it if it wasn't 90 and the dogs didn't use the streets as their own personal toilets.). We sat right on one of the main piazza's and enjoyed the ambiance. I actually remembered the guy who served us ice cream from four years ago. I guess it must be a good job to hold on to! We are enjoying a few comforts of home ...

Rebecca Travels to Europe: Final Day...
http://rebeccatravelstoeurope.blogspot.com/2008/07/final-day.html
Tuesday, July 8, 2008. Today, I write this entry from the comfortable couch at my parent's house, safe and sound, back in the states! After lunch, we went back to the hotel and packed up our suitcases, which amazingly, with the help of small duffle bag, it all fit! Then we went back to the cathedral to participate in mass. Although it was in Italian, it was still a peaceful and meaningful service. I have now seen mass in four different languages! We walked a few blocks away to the gelato store with over ...
