Rome

We arrived in Rome Monday afternoon April 28. Although we were exhausted from the flight we were too excited to sleep. From our hotel we walked to the Spanish Steps and Trevi Fountain. I would have loved to have thrown a coin in but I could not get near it. Even in the off season Rome is crowded.
The next 2 days we spent exploring the Colosseum, Roman Forum and Palatine Hill. Thursday we were going to the Vatican but May 1st is Labor Day in Italy and all the museums were closed. We walked around The Vatican but we did not go into St Peter's or any of the museums.
