Rome, day 1

On the first day in Rome, we walked a lot...we went to the Colosseum and walked the whole area around. Just the usual. It's pretty compact here and the whole city looks like a museum. Here are some pictures...

As we walked home at dusk, we saw thousands of starlings wheeling over Rome. It's as if they were dancing across the sky in a beautiful pattern...kind of like a screensaver. I later read somewhere that it's a usual sight in Europe. It was just beautiful.
