Our Stops

Two cousins that live on opposite sides of the United States reunited in Italy.

Floating through the canals.

Exploring one of the nearby islands.

Greeted in Florence with a terrace lunch at our hotel.

Hotel Silla was perfectly located on the edge of downtown Florence.


Evening stroll to see the colosseum at night.

The hotel manager taught me how to start his old school car.

Our hotel in Rome, Lancelot, was a short walk from the colosseum.
What you Need to Know
Before going on the trip most of the family had never been outside of North America. The Rick Steves Website provided us with all the information about the trip and answered many of the questions we had before departing. We followed the packing list and never felt like we needed more. The hardest part was waiting almost a year for our trip date!
