Travel | Europe Recap

My grandmother graciously took our family on a European cruise this summer. It consisted of two and a half days in Rome, a seven night cruise, and another two days in Rome. Here are the highlights. 
Standard airplane window picture 
Exit of the Vatican Museum
View of Rome from the Vatican Museum 
Sneaky picture of the Sistine Chapel
The beginning of our walk to the Leaning Tower of Pisa.
Halfway there we caught a taxi and arrived at the foot of the tower.
Another day and train ride to Venice. Simply amazing.
The Rialto Bridge
View from the Rialto Bridge which I stuck a filter on, tweeted, and used as my twitter header.
Lights coming through the windows of the Vatican. 
Messina, Sicily where the water was calm and wonderful. 
Marble stadium built for the Olympics in Athens, Greece. 
Elegant mosque in Kusadasi, Turkey.
Apparently Turkish rugs are second to none and use a double knot rather than a single knot.
The Colosseum in all it's glory. 
The inside, which was equally as glorious.
The Trevi Fountain, aka where Lizzie McGuire became an international pop star. 
And we got back just in time for the Fourth of July!
