Rome here we come!

I slept in so we did not get out till lunch time. We took the subway to Termini witch I guess is the hub of the city. We got a map.
Then we ended up talking to this guy Adam he was selling the hop on hop off bus tickets. So we decided to get our selfs a ticket.
We got on the bus and it took us to the colosseo. It is very impressive so we get off. Of back track Adam said he would be shaunas Italian boyfriend. He was very funny and friendly. He told us we can ask hem for information any time he all was works there so we would know we're to find him.
So we got out at the colossum. And walked up to it I am very very excited to get to go into it. We then walked around this ruin area that turned out to be the temple of peace well what was left of it. We also got to see the police / political building I don't remember the name but it was so amazing it is guarded 24/7.  There is a giant brass statue of a man on a horse. And idea on how big this is. When the statue was put in place they had dinner in the belly of the horse.
All this took us till the end of day. So we got back on the bus it was around 5.
Ohhhh back track in out wondering around we had to get lunch so we went to a pizza place. We sat out side in the sun it was soooo beautiful out. The pizza was very good. I got tomatto and mozzarella. So cheass pizza but come on in had to try.  After that we got "icecream" I don't think I can go back to the stuff we have at home.  
We both got chocolate.  So as we ate out ice cream in the sun we walked towards the colossum. What a hard trip. We stopped inan information place and got Rome cards for 3 days we get cheap accesses and express lines also public transport is free. So it is great..
We went to the store on the way home got some food, on our way homewe stopped at this little hollow in thewall of a place to send an email to the owner of the place because the Internet was not working and the numbers on there business cards would not work.
He came by latter to fix it. Oh and the stove because It does not work well that oven part. They will be coming buy someother time to look at oven because he did not know what was wrong.
It was a good productive day.
