When in Rome....

Rome is our second stop in Italy and the first one where we opted to stay in a hotel.  It was quite difficult finding an apartment and not much easier finding a hotel that would allow 4 occupants in a room.  Apparently 2 occupants per hotel room is the standard in Rome, but the expense of having 2 rooms was crazy.  Finally we found a hotel with a family suite:

There is a lot to do and see in Rome and we have 6 days to visit the Pantheon; the Colosseum; the Vatican; the Trevi Fountain.  We booked an afternoon in gladiator school, which includes the rental of clothing and weapons.  I have never experienced rented gladiator clothing, it should be an olfactory experience.
