Although we knew that we would be back in Rome a few weeks later we decided to go look around the city. My friends and I bought tickets for a hop on/hop off bus for 18 euros that took us around Rome. Their was a tour guide on the bus that pointed out all of the historical spots of Rome. We were able to get off where ever we wanted. We stopped to get off and look at the Vatican, Colosseum, Spanish Steps, and the Trevi Fountain. We did not go inside the Vatican or the Colosseum because we will be doing that in a few days, but being up close and observing these amazing places was incredible. Even though it rained the whole day we still had so much fun. Below is a link that is useful when looking for bus tickets for the hop on/hop off bus.

My favorite part about Rome was the visiting the Trevi Fountain. It is a tradition to throw a coin into the Trevi Fountain. People say that if you throw a coin into the foutain you will one day return to Rome. Below is a video that I took of my friend throwing a coin into the Trevi Fountain.
This is a great link to look at to learn about the Trevi Fountain.

Before visiting Rome I would consider looking up fun things to do in Rome. There were so many things in Rome that I did not know even existed. Here is a link with great ideas.
