We're back! The past few days have been quite a whirlwind! Since we encountered rain the first two days of Rome, we had a lot see to our last without having regrets! Not only did we visit the Colosseum, Palentine Hill, the Forum, and Circus Maximus, but we also visited the Trajan baths and several other sites that were breathtaking. The Colisseum was absolutely amazing and the views at Palentine Hill were equally breath taking. At one point, you could see the Coliseum and the Alps in the far background. The Circus Maximus is now more like a rectangular park, but it was still exciting to visit. Toward the end of the day, we made our way to St. Peter in chains, where Michelangelo's "Moses" is located. The condition of all the ancient sites were incredibly impressive. We hated to leave but are so happy to be back at Wofford!! (Sorry, we thought this posted a few days ago but the email did not go through!)
