lodging
I will be staying at the Stars-hotels Metropole hotel. It is a 4 star hotel that is $322 a night. I choose KAYAK to book the hotel because it had the same price as the other sites, I didn't find a cheaper website. The Metropole hotel includes breakfast witch people say is very good, that also gives me one less meal to worry about when I'm in Rome.
activities
Ancient Rome Colosseum
We will walk in and explore we will explore the 1st and 2nd tiers of this attraction. A guide will tell us the history about the gladiators and other events that occurred there.
Pompeii and Amalfi Coast
I will be touring the town for a day trip. This activity seems to be popular because on the website it said "likely to sell out."
Rome sightseeing tour
We will be touring Rome on a double decker bus. You are able to get off of the bus anytime you would like between the eight stops. You can also get back on as many times you would like! You go and see all of Italy's cool ruins and very amazing buildings.

Problems to anticipate and solutions suggested
I have been pick pocketed by one of the hooligans down in the train station by the colosseum. The gypsies down there out number the vacationists greatly. I had my luggage waiting for a train, next thing you know one of my smaller bags is gone. I looked around for it until a local said more than likely I was pick pocketed! Good thing I had nothing to speacial in that bag just some socks and underwear but i could by those at a store somewhere.
Conclusion/Reflection
Overall it was a really fun trip. I enjoyed seeing the colosseum and all of the other attractions I saw! Besides the fact of being pick pocketed I problem solved and bought some new clothes. The italian locals are real nice and the food is good.
