@ Ephraim: Thanks. 🙂 Yeah, it’s a must-visit!
@ Mary: I can imagine the tour would cost a lot too. The expenses would certainly be higher since you’re a family.
@ Freya: Let me know how your trip goes!
I’m going in September to Rome, I hope somebody will be nice enough to give me her/his ticket as well 🙂 fabulous photos !
Love your photos here, Aleah! You really captured the beauty of the Colosseum and its history. This was the first attraction we saw in Rome. It really does need to be seen in person to fully appreciate its size and role in history. We didn’t do the tour which we regret but listened in to a couple of them. Lucky you to have gotten in for free. We were here in November with hardly any lines. I can imagine how crowded and humid it is during the summer.
Wow! The Colosseum is iconic and historic– definitely a place to visit in Rome. You have beautiful photos too! 🙂
@ Leah: Well, they (the Romans) have certainly come a long way since then!
@ Salika: Thanks. 🙂 And yeah, I was blessed to be the recipient of that woman’s generosity!
How great it is to find such wonderful people like that. The Colosseum is a wonderful place. Great photos, especially the last one!
wow… man has come a long way from this form of cruelty. Great part of history! thanks for sharing..
@ Marky: Love that movie too. I’ll watch it again, and remember the colosseum as it is now!
@ Photo Cache: Too bad you didn’t get to go inside the first time.
I must say I just passed by here; I hope someday, I get to go inside. It’s a bucket list mainstay.
Reading your post brings back memory of a past life. In a place i once recited these words
“Father to a murdered son, husband to a murdered wife. And I will have my vengeance, in this life or the next.”
@ Gaye: That’s nothing. You should see the crowd during the summer months!
@ Patti: Yeah, make time to go there. It’s wonderful.
Definitely a place I hope to visit – sooner than later! Great photos!
Lucky you! So awesome when things turn out like that. 1st photo – ermergehd the crowd!
