✨ Day 4 Part 1: Roma 🇮🇹🏛️✨
As Lizzie McGuire said… “Hey now, hey now… this is what dreams are made of” ✨🤍 Getting to explore Rome with somebody I love (besides bc I love you too lol) has been such a surreal experience and I truly love doing this life with my husband Anthony 🫶🏼 I’m also very glad I convinced him just about 4 weeks ago to book this trip because WOW… what a dream this has been 🇮🇹
We docked in Civitavecchia Port, our gateway to the beautiful city of Rome! We decided to do a hop-on hop-off bus tour which was the perfect way to see so many iconic landmarks in one day 🤍 We visited Vatican City, explored the Spanish Steps, tossed coins into the Trevi Fountain, and even drove by the iconic Colosseum 🏛️✨ Every stop truly felt like stepping into a history book!
The day goes by SO fast in Rome, but we’re so happy we got a little taste of the city together ✨ I was fortunate enough to visit about 6 years ago, but it was Anthony’s first time and getting to experience it with him made it even more special 🥹
Of course we enjoyed all the essentials… pasta 🍝 gelato 🍨 un caffè ☕️ and yes… some shopping too 😅🛍️
✨ We learned that Rome is nicknamed “The Eternal City” because ancient Romans believed the city would last forever! Even after thousands of years filled with wars, emperors, and change, so much of the city’s history, architecture, and culture still remains today. Walking through Rome truly feels like stepping back in time while still experiencing the beauty and life of a modern city 🇮🇹✨
