We flew to Italy for two weeks to celebrate our first wedding anniversary and it was heaven!!!
First stop: Rome. We stayed at a darling bed + breakfast near the Vatican and walked everywhere, all over the beautiful city each day.
We loved the Coliseum tour! So much history!
And walking through the ruins . . .
Sunset view from the Spanish Steps
Vatican City!
We were lucky enough to get tickets to the Papal visit and got Pope Benedict's blessing.
Love Rome!
The Pantheon
Trevi Fountain! Made a couple wishes . . .
Loved all the fresh food markets around Roma . . .
After several days in Rome, we took a beautiful train ride to Venice!
We stayed at a cute little apartment B&B that was upstairs in a building and it felt like we lived there with the locals, kids were playing down below in the street. It was BEAUTIFUL!

St. Mark's Square
One Year Married!
Then, another train ride to Florence!
We had gelato EVERY DAY!
