Rome was a most enjoyable part of our trip. We visited the Basilica of San Giovanni (John the Baptist) followed by the Catacombs. When we were down in the lower levels of the Catacombs, we escaped the heat (high 30s). Later in the afternoon, we went to the Vatican and visited the Basilica of San Pietro and walked through St Peter's Square. The Pope was not around - recovering from his visit to Australlia no doubt!
The next day we went to the 3rd of the Basilicas in Rome - San Paulo where the Apostle Paul is buried. We also visited the Rome Pyramid and the Museum in the City Wall.
Our final stop was to the Trevi Fountain to throw in some coins...... our last wish had come true!
Delay in posting.... Internet closed on Sunday.

Not that I am bloodthirsty or anything...but were the catacombs still full of bones?(Ewww)
I'm glad the internet isn't closed on Sunday in secular Australia!
