Stop 33 - Porta Portese flea market: Unfortunately, Milo came down with the flu the night before so we had a rough last night in Italy. Ryan also woke up that morning feeling sick making the start of our day a bit rough. By mid-morning we were all feeling a bit better and started our day off with a visit to the Porta Portese flea market. In all of the countries we have gone to we have tried to hit up a flea market to find vintage pieces for Milo's travel-themed bedroom we'll put together when we move home. The market was ridiculously huge and completely packed. It was amazing how many clothing stalls they had and how many people seemed to be doing their regular shopping at the market.
Stop 34 - Colosseum: After the market we headed over to the Colosseum to walk the grounds. The building was amazing and Maeli enjoyed telling us her version of how the building used to be used.
Stop 24 - Chianti Region: While staying in Florence, Maeli came down with the flu and was up half the night throwing up. Despite the fact that she had a rough night, she was energized and ready to party the next morning. As we began our drive to Rome, we decided to take the scenic route through the Chianti region near Sienna which is know as Italy's wine country. The area was beautiful and reminded us a lot of Spain. Our only regret was that we didn't plan our trip to allow more time to stop and explore the region.
