Italia !!!

I returned June 2nd from the trip to Italy with my family. It was a great trip! My first to Europe. We flew in to Rome and spent 4 days there. It is a beautiful city but very busy and crowded. We saw all of the major sites there. My favorite part of Rome was this huge park about 2 blocks from the hotel. From Rome we took the Eurostar train to Florence. Florence is significantly smaller and easier to navigate. We toured several art galleries and churches there and went on a day trip to Siena and San Gimagno. Vienna was next. It was my favorite place because there were no cars, just canals and sidewalks. It is amazing that people have boats instead of cars there. It was beautiful. We flew out of Venice direct to New York where our flight was delayed for about 4 hours so we did not get back to Birmingham until about 4am. It was a great trip. Pictures are on the way!
