2015 - Sept. 28, 29 The Forum, Colosseum, and the Palatine Hill

Stepping way back in time, we spent a couple of afternoons in the ancient center of Rome. We first visited the Colosseum and tried to dodge the raindrops. 

It's hard to take a picture inside as the Colosseum is so large.

You original floor is gone, exposing the passage ways for the animals.

Once you get to the top, you realize how BIG some of the building stones are.

A nice view of the Arch of Constantine, just outside.

The Colosseum took most of the afternoon and decided to come back the next day to see the rest of the area.
