ROME
Colloseo was our first destination after we arrived there. It was one of the seven wonders. Waw!! It is old, but so sturdy. Though it was not on the weekend, many visitors were there to see how wonderful it is. So glad to be there..:)

After visiting Colloseo and walked around its surroundings, we took metro to go to the two most beautiful fountains in Rome, namely, Fountain del Tritone and Fontana de Trevi. Following them, Pantheon and fine dining filled our moment till it came the time to take rest. We choose a restaurant serving many original Italian foods. I ate risotto!! So delicious..!!

The next day was special time set for visiting the holy city, Vatican. We were stuck in the long queue line for a while before entering the Vatican Museum. It is everyday crowded!! Incredible!! Afterwards, we continued to the Vatican church..!! Here we go..

VENICE
The city stretches across 117 small islands in the marshy Venetian Lagoon along the Adriatic Sea in northeast Italy. The saltwater lagoon stretches along the shoreline between the mouths of the Po (south) and the Piave (north) Rivers (wikipedia.com).

Never have an imagination before that someday I could be in Venice. Really thanks to God.. I was truly there.. enjoying my holiday.. City-site seeing using gondola.. Having lunch right on the seafront.. Buying a special Venezian mask and wearing it after.. How could I be happier?!
