Hi Mum and Dad!

Rome must be  .........   the most fascinating cities in the world.
Yesterday we visited  .........   other places, the Foro Romano-the centre of ancient Rome-and the Vatican. There is such an incredible contrast  .........   the old parts of the city built up to 2000 years ago and the more recent ones.
In the Vatican we climbed the long stairs to the top of St. Peter's Church. The view from the top must be  .........   the most incredible over any city in the world. But  .........   you and me, I'm a bit scared of heights and was glad to come back to ground level.
Later we went to the Pantheon, an ancient Roman temple, which is  .........    the Vatican and the Foro Romano. The italian king Umberto I and the artist Raphael are  .........    the people buried there.
In the evening we had an argument  .........    us over where we should eat. Mark wanted pizza, but I wanted to try some of the special local food. Eventually we found a place that did excellent pasta,  .........   other things. The only problem then was choosing  .........   the many different types.
