When we arrived in Rome we headed back to the hotel we had stayed our first night of the trip, the Donna Laura Palace to check in for our final night in Italy. We then had the afternoon and evening free so as some relaxed in the hotel others went to explore the Colosseum or other places they missed on our earlier trips. But we all met back at the hotel to go to dinner together at a place Derek & Kristin had heard of, 'Gusto's. When the taxi's came we found out there were actually similarly name restaurants and we went to the right one but may have made the reservations at the other. Luckily Italians eat very late and we beat the evening rush.
Dinner was wonderful, although i must admit i was needing a break from pasta so i had a perfectly cooked filet mignon. After desert a few headed back to the hotel while the rest of us took a taxi to Rome's Hard Rock Cafe to collect a few last minutes souvenirs and have a cocktail.
This was to be a short night's sleep for us as the ones heading back to Boise had to be up around 3am and we were picked up for transportation to the airport by 3:50 am.
This was a amazing trip and i think we are all still impressed at how much we saw and did in 10 days.... unbelievable!!!!
