Alpaca Travels-a To-a Roma!

The Alpaca was craving pizza, so he went... where else but Italy. He started in Rome, where he excitedly visited the famous Roman Coliseum (http://wikitravel.org/en/Rome/Colosseo), where man was pitted against animal. The Roman Forum (what's left of it anyway) and the Pantheon was next (http://wikitravel.org/en/Rome/Pantheon).


Mandatory stops at the Vatican and St. Peter's Basilica (http://www.stpetersbasilica.org/), beautiful Trevi Fountain (http://www.aviewoncities.com/rome/trevi.htm, where Alpaca tried to bob for change until he calculated the $1 to 2,000 lira exchange rate) and the Spanish Steps (with the famous Ugly Boat Fountain - which really is quite ugly, http://www.romaclick.com/Pages/Rome/Tosee/Rome-guide-Spanish-Steps.htm) arounded out the highlights of Rome. Or so we thought. Little did we know that Ryan was going to take us on a church tour of Italy. We've seen every church in Italy. Every last one. Including the church next door to a church. Really. I'm not making this up. There was a church next door to a church. Both Catholic. The entire country is going straight to heaven, I'm sure of it.
