We spent 6 nights in Rome for our summer holiday break before the peak season. We made sure that we took Felix to see all of the sights of Rome which for us was a back-breaking experience as we carried him around in a back-pack the entire time. 35-37 degrees every single day and topped off with a delayed and broken plane, stuck on the runway on the trip home.
Felix made sure that we ate alfresco every meal so that we would be less embarrassed by the food thrown on the ground. Ice-cream never went to waste though. The heat knocked Aasta and I around but did not seem to affect Felix too much. He was very happy to just be carried around like a prince.

Daring to go higher.
No fear.

Inside the Vatican museum and Felix already looks bored.
Who's the goose?
St. Peter's Square. Get out of the photo Mum!!!
Thanks. Now we can take a photo.
Inside the Roman Forum. Why did we pay for this again? We could have walked around outside and looked in for free.
More old rock we could have seen for free.

Jumping on someone's old rocks. No respect.

More beautiful scenery.
Resting in the shade. Still 35 degrees.
More domes and beautiful monuments.
Relaxing on the Spanish Steps in the afternoon sun. All we need now is a gelato.
