Today we had a late start, getting out of our hotel at about 12:15. We rode the bus to the Capitoline Museum. In the museum we saw all sorts of famous statues, starting with Venus, and the Capitoline Wolf, and ending with the Dying Gaul. The Capitoline Wolf did not have the statues of Romulus and Remus when she was built. The twins were added centuries after. For dinner we went to a very good burger shop (the one we went to on the Colosseum and Forum tour). While there, we saw some more Ferraris, one old one new (to us).

Great pose with the satyr Christian (otherwise known as C). Love your new secret agent names, you should work in some numbers into your name.
