Europe - Italy Day 2

03 May 2016 (Tues):

Rise and shine. We had a Welcome Reception the evening before and we hit our pillows early.

We had a long day of flights the day before - SIN/DXB for 7 hrs, transit another 4 hours and then DXB / FCO for another 7 hours... waited for the complimentary for 2 hours..

We did the orientation drive in Rome – a site of ancient ruins, rich in culture and history, saw The Vatican City and the Colosseum, St Peter’s Basilica, Piazzas and Fountains of Rome.

The Vatican City

St Peter’s Basilica 

Here’s a group photo, taken at the Colosseum. Our group people were mainly from The United States.

Piazzas and Fountains of Rome. This was done on the early evening. We walked through the alleys and corridors with our Local Specialists and has Gelato ice dream.

This was where we stayed for 2 nights. The Crowne Plaza Hotel in Rome was wonderful. The rooms were big and spacious and wifi were readily available in the rooms.
