Orvieto and Rome

Arrived in the bustling Rome termini station after a great day in Orvieto- the best risotto ever and dropping off the car.
Rome still dirty crazy feral and full of tourists but wonderful! Visited a great new archaeological museum where you walk into the dig itself ( Balbi) as well as all the good mosaic churches. St Clements also has a dig in progress and a Mithraen temple underneath as well as a 4th century church. Dale worried about the safety aspects due to the underground river ou could hear nearby - I said its been there for 3000yrs so dont worry!
Borghese gallery yesterday and off today for our last full day then home- alas!
Mixed emotions looking forward to the children and friends again to say nothing of the cats!
