<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Marko, post: 200654, member: 210&quot;]Hmmmm...... I visited Rome, Florence, and Venice.&nbsp;&nbsp; Rome is a bustling, fun city.&nbsp; You see a lot of history.&nbsp; You will see the Forum, the Spanish Steps, the Pantheon, Trevi Fountain, and don&#039;t miss The Vatican, especially the Sistine Chapel.&nbsp; Rome is&nbsp; a city of large and small fountains.&nbsp; Florence was my favorite city.... quieter, foot traffic only within the city, the Uffizi Museum, the statue of David, saw Botticelli&#039;s Birth of Venus, my favorite painting.&nbsp; We were pickpocketed leaving Florence to visit Venice, so our time in Venice was short.&nbsp; I thought Venice was a little creepy, the smell of decay in the canals.... I would have preferred to visit the Murano glass factories there, but we only had a day there.&nbsp; If I had to choose out of all three, though, for a visit I would tell you to see Rome.&nbsp; I want to go back and visit the cameo factories.&nbsp; If you see something there you like, BUY it.&nbsp; My biggest jewelry regret in my whole life was not buying a stunning cameo of Botticelli&#039;s Birth of Venus set in 14k gold in Florence.... it was $400 at the time in 1996, and I didn&#039;t want to use a credit card.... regretting it still.&nbsp; Be very aware of the pickpocketing, guard your plane tickets, passport, and money.... use a money belt.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
