Hello from Rome!

So I am writing this from our beautiful hotel in the centre of Rome-we arrived here in the peak of the heat at around half 1 and found that we had been upgraded for free to a luxury suite rather than the standard double room we had booked...how lucky? It is amazing, a perfect location with lovely huge bed and a jacuzzi which has all these massage and flashing light thingys...so cool. I have never stayed in such a nice room. Anyway, hotels aside, we are having a wonderful time. We haven't got long in Rome as we come home on Sunday but as it's our 6 year anniversary on Saturday (whooo) we are going to make sure that is an extra special day. Florence was beautiful, if a little hot and smelly and yesterday we did a very long hot walk up the hills so that we could take it the view. We didn't actually have time to go to any art galleries (I hear gasps) but we visited lots of other museums and attractions. 

After arriving in Rome today with the 34 degrees hitting us straight away, we headed for the Trevi fountain and then onto Giolitti...the world famous ice cream parlour! I felt sick but it was ohhhh so worth it. We walked around the sights, taking it all in and the general lovely romance of Rome. It really is so beautiful and tomorrow we are going to the Villa Borghese-a pretty park and the Zoo and a few museums. No doubt there will be gelato involved somewhere too. I am exhausted as it's half past midnight here so I shall leave you here with a few photos and I will do a proper post when I get back. Love love love xoxo
