“Gladiators Ready”

7th Apr ~ 10th Apr 2023

Time for a family city break.

Early Start with the alarm going off at 2:30am.  Rooster was grumpy but all in all is was a smooth trip through Gatwick and after a small delay we arrived in Rome later morning.  After a taxi we finally got a chance to meet Oli G.

Day 1 – 7th April 

After arriving a short walk through to the very crowded Trevi Fountain, a few beers and Pizza followed with some gelato broke the ice and all good in the hood….

A quick shower and forty winks before heading out to Matts birthday meal at the Stradaromana Restaurant 

Day 2 – 8th April

Vatican City 
Tour guide – Franco

The Colosseum
Tour guide – Thomase

Evening at the Opera was a disappointment – no good reviews for them.

Day 3 – 9th April

This was free time, All couples went in different directions.  Rooster and Cola went to the local park.  The sun was shining and a coffee and danish on the park was perfect.

We all met at The Pantheon, which was an amazing building at over 2000 years old.  The design was incredible.

After the largest ‘sandwich’ ever we tracked over to the Rome with Chef cookery course.  This was incredible – we made the pasta and tiramisu.  We had Prosecco, red wine and Limoncello. They really made an effort and will definitely get a 5* review.

Back home for a cocktail en-route and a bottle of wine to finished the weekend.  Pickup tomorrow at 10:30 for the airport home.
