Michael in front of the Roman Forum and Coliseum in the distance
The main treasury building around the time Christ was born
Looking through to the Coliseum - like walking down Wellington Pde to the MCG!
Showing the highest remaining part of the Coliseum, and probably the most photographed area
The inner wall of the huge stadium
We had to get our mugs into this famous angle
You can see the wear and tear of this ancient Gladiatorial arena
Back at the Roman Forum, looking towards the 'new' city from Rome's residential area 500BC - 400AD
These used to be houses of Romans, some people lived here 500 years before Jesus was alive
The grand arch - an entrance to the forum
Just a cool shot really
Michael thinks cricket's 3 stumps may have been invented in Rome???!
