They have arrived in Rome!

Everyone - I just heard from Mrs. Brooks and she said they have all arrived in Rome safely!! Today they climbed to the top of Mt. Vesuvius which she said is still active! They could actually see steam coming out of the top of the volcano. They actually climbed above the clouds! They then went to Naples and saw the craziness of the traffic up close! In Naples, they went to the oldest museum in all of Italy (possibly in all of Europe). She said it was like you were in Greece since they saw many Greek-Roman artifacts. They are going down to dinner right now and then are going to stroll through the coleseum.

Again, you can call your child tonight at the hotel after 10:00 pm (their time). They have internet service in the rooms at the hotel, but it is very expensive. She is going to try to find an internet cafe so her or the kids can update the blog. They are off to the Vatican tomorrow.

The weather has been quite rainy, but I'm sure it's nicer than being here! The best thing of the trip has been the food! Very good!!

I'll update again tomorrow if she doesn't.
