Brad hanging out in the van listening to his MP3 player as we waited for the ferry.

Some of the girls enjoying a minute as we waited.

This mega yacht we saw as we were leaving was even bigger than the one we saw yesterday. I especially like the touch of the custom helicopter on top.

When we got there we went to Fara in Sabina which is a very old hill top town. The views were incredible.

Leaving Venice and heading to Rome. We were hoping to leave by about 10am and be able to visit Florence on the way to where we are staying about 30 minutes north of Rome, but by the time we finally got out of the place at about 11am, then caught the ferry it was nearly 1pm by the time we made it to the mainland. The GPS said we weren’t going to make it to where we were going until about 6:30, so we thought we’d better keep going. It was a pretty long slog and everyone was getting pretty tired by the time we made it. As it was, we made it by about 5pm, and the people that were going to meet us where we are staying weren’t there, so we went to the store, then drove around for a little bit. We ended up driving to Fara in Sabina, which is a little village at the top of a hill. The drive up was really cool, and I’m looking forward riding my bike up there later in the week. We were all excited to see how nice this place was after staying in Venice. I did my best in planning things out where to stay, but you are never sure how nice someplace will be until you get there.
