Rome - April 2010


A rare chance for Paul and I to nip away to a romantic getaway without the kids. Thank you, Auntie Fiona! We literally took 1000 photos thanks to the age of digital cameras.  Telling by my blisters, we saw absolutely everything there was to see in Rome, but I'm not posting the typical tourist shots. Much to Paul's dismay, I'm displaying some the pictures that have people in them, namely us, but my dear husband abhors putting a person in the shot. If there's a picture of me, it's only because I threatened divorce.
