Rome, part 1

After spending some days in Tuscany;  Barb, Don and I headed to the big city of Rome.  The days in Rome have been lovely, even though it rained for one of the days.  We tried to hit everything we could. It is amazing what you can fit into some days.  My walker app showed that I walked over 8 miles one of the days.  So the last day arrived and we began with an audience with the pope in St. Peter's square.  
Then we toured the Vatican Museum.  
Finally we ended with a  dinner at Piazza Navonna.  
Those of you who went on the pilgrimage remember this spot.  We finished the evening with a glass of lemonchello, of course.  So then I sent them off, returning to Florence and soon Chicago.  It was great to be together for the last 10 days.
