IT WAS BY FAR MY PERSONAL FAVORITE. WE COULD HAVE EASILY SPENT THE ENTIRE WEEK HERE AND STILL NOT SEE EVERYTHING. BUT WE TOURED THE VATICAN, ST. PETER'S CATHEDRAL, THE SISTINE CHAPEL, THE COLLISEUM, THE FORUM AND TREVI FOUNTAIN. THE PHOTO ON THE LEFT IS IN FRONT OF THE HOLY DOOR AT ST PETER'S BASILICA. IT IS OPENED EVERY 25 YEARS, AND WALKED THROUGH BY THE POPE, COMMEMORATING THE BEGINNING OF THE HOLY YEAR. THE PHOTO ON THE RIGHT IS OF THE PIETA (THE PITY), MICHELANGELO'S FAMOUS SCULPTURE OF THE MADONNA HOLDING HER DEAD SON. IT IS LOCATED INSIDE ST PETER'S BASILICA.</B></I></div> </td> <td valign="top" BGCOLOR="#FFFFCC" TEXT="#080000"> <div> <FONT SIZE="4" COLOR="#000000" FACE="Tempus Sans ITC" ><I><B>Hornberger's European Vacation</B></I></FONT><FONT SIZE="4" COLOR="#333399" FACE="Tempus Sans ITC" ><I><B>  </B></I></FONT><I><B>| </B></I><A HREF="index.htm" TARGET="_top" TITLE="Hornbergers European Vacation"><U><I><B>home</B></I></U></A></div> <div> <A HREF="id49.htm" TARGET="_top" TITLE="Burg Eltz"><U>Burg Eltz</U></A>   |   <A HREF="id50.htm" TARGET="_top" TITLE="Cologne"><U>Cologne</U></A>   |   <A HREF="id48.htm" TARGET="_top" TITLE="Arc De Triumph"><U>Arc De  Triumph</U></A>   |   <A HREF="id52.htm" TARGET="_top" TITLE="Grand Palais"><U>Grand Palais</U></A>   |   <A HREF="id51.htm" TARGET="_top" TITLE="Les Invalides"><U>Les Invalides</U></A>   |   <A HREF="id53.htm" TARGET="_top" TITLE="The Louvre "><U>The Louvre </U></A>   |   <A HREF="id54.htm" TARGET="_top" TITLE="Venus De Milo"><U>Venus De Milo</U></A>   |   <A HREF="id65.htm" TARGET="_top" TITLE="Eifel Tower"><U>Eifel Tower</U></A>   |   <A HREF="id66.htm" TARGET="_top" TITLE="Notre Dame"><U>Notre Dame</U></A>   |   <A HREF="id67.htm" TARGET="_top" TITLE="Jardin Du Luxembourg"><U>Jardin Du Luxembourg</U></A>   |   <A HREF="id68.htm" TARGET="_top" TITLE="Rodin Museum"><U>Rodin Museum</U></A>   |   <A HREF="id69.htm" TARGET="_top" TITLE="Garmisch"><U>Garmisch</U></A>   |   <A HREF="id70.htm" TARGET="_top" TITLE="Neuschwanstein"><U>Neuschwanstein</U></A>   |   <A HREF="id74.htm" TARGET="_top" TITLE="Hoenganaou"><U>Hoenganaou</U></A>   |   <A HREF="id71.htm" TARGET="_top" TITLE="Dachau"><U>Dachau</U></A>   |   <A HREF="id72.htm" TARGET="_top" TITLE="Salzburg"><U>Salzburg</U></A>   |   <A HREF="id73.htm" TARGET="_top" TITLE="Partenkirtchen"><U>Partenkirtchen</U></A>   |   <A HREF="id75.htm" TARGET="_top" TITLE="Pisa"><U>Pisa</U></A>   |   <B>Rome</B>   |   <A HREF="id77.htm" TARGET="_top" TITLE="Colosseum"><U>Colosseum</U></A>   |   <A HREF="id78.htm" TARGET="_top" TITLE="Beach"><U>Beach</U></A>   |   <A HREF="id79.htm" TARGET="_top" TITLE="Switzerland"><U>Switzerland</U></A></div> <div> <IMG SRC="1de19770.jpg" border=0 width="281" height="375" ALIGN="BOTTOM" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0"><IMG SRC="1e019770.jpg" border=0 width="281" height="375" ALIGN="BOTTOM" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0"></div> <bR> </td> </tr></table></body>
