Italy Family Trip Reports

Age 11

Traveled with my Mom

Rome, Italy

We got to Rome at night and we went to our hotel. In the morning we took the subway to the Colosseum . We took a tour and I learned that the gladiators would fight tigers, lions and sometimes elephants there. That was their entertainment. It was cool to see a wonder of the world. We walked around and saw a statue of King Tut. Later we realized it was a real person! He stood so still.

The next day we went to the town square and watched performers and artists. I really liked watching them. We went and threw a coin in the Trevi fountain for good luck. We also went to the Spanish steps and I wanted to ride in a horse and carriage but it was too expensive. We went out for dinner and I had lasagne-it was so good.

The next day we went to the Vatican. There was a huge lineup to get in and it was hot. We walked around and we saw Michael Angelos painting on the ceiling. I liked that it was a different country. We went to a big park and we rented electric bicycles-I wish I had one of those at home. We had gelato which tasted good.

Rome was fun because I got to see the Colosseum and it is my goal to see all the wonders of the world.
