Rome

We had great tours of Pompeii and Herculaneum yesterday and moved on to Rome today where we took a tour of the catacombs.  Our priest guide was most entertaining.  One would not think that an area of ancient tombs would be a place of levity, but when you see all the images celebrating the good things of life around the tombs, a little humor seems fitting.  Tomorrow we have a tour of the Vatican in the morning and ancient Rome in the afternoon.  Hard to believe we are drawing near to the end of this pilgrimage.  This has been a great traveling group.

The pictures I tried to upload from Naples evidently didn't go through so will try again here.
