Good Day ROAD TRIPPERS!!!! Soon I will need to move us North, I will give us a couple of more days around Rome, maybe through Thursday, then we will need to move on. Let me know what you think. We still have a ton we can see here. If you like, we can make this trip Southern Europe and make the Spring ROAD TRIP 2021 Northern Europe. We will be having the mini-Fall and mini-Winter where we do the amusement parks for NoTD and Frostfell like last year. I don't know I have been tossing around ideas in my head. I need some other brains to voice their opinions. We can also just do some random samplings, move north and keep seeing countries and then go back and visit those countries we wish to see more in depth in Spring 2021 after we do Australia and New Zealand. I don't know, everybody please toss your opinions into the ring!!!!! Now lets get a move on, so much to see and so little time!!!! For our first stop today, we will be visiting the Fontana dei Quattro Fiumi. This is the Fountain of the Four Rivers, by Bernini. Here is a link to the website: http://www.sovraintendenzaroma.it/i...ne/fontana_dei_quattro_fiumi_in_piazza_navona Next we are going to the Largo di Torre Argentina. This is a Temple complex from Ancient Rome. I know we saw parts of this earlier but now all of it has been opened so I have arranged a private guided tour for us and we can see all of it. Here are a couple of links: http://www.sovraintendenzaroma.it/i...e_archeologiche/area_sacra_di_largo_argentina http://www.sovraintendenzaroma.it/c...le-della-maison-bvlgari-l’area-sacra-di-largo Our last stop is the Appia Antica Archaeological Park. This is going to be a very, very, very long adventure. This adventure includes the Mausoleum of Cecilia Metella and Castrum Caetani, the Claudio, Marcio and Anio Novus aqueducts, the Aqueduct of the Quintili, the Antiquarium of Lucrezia Romana, the Caffarella, the Capo di Bove complex, the Tombs of the Via Latina, the Tor Marancia, the Via Appia Antica, the Villa dei Quintili and Santa Maria Nova, and the Villa of Sette Bassi. There are 130 sites on about 60 itineraries revolving around the sites I listed above. The last link is to the itineraries page where you can look at the different itineraries. This will take us about 12 hours, maybe longer. I have arranged for our chefs to be out here to cook us lunch. The Cabana Boys will have the Bubble Traks out here as well because we will be doing a lot of hiking and if anybody needs to rest, I would prefer you rest in the Bubble Traks so we can keep moving.

I told you the idea to stay in the countries around the Mediterranean before , we spend our spring island hopping in the Atlantic , and now we are mostly in the Mediterranean. I think people are getting tired . than we can come ,for example to southern Germany for the "Oktober Fest ", o my , that's already in a Month . We could have the spring trip go go through the Summer trip and straight into Fall and if only for the "Oktober Fest ", I am still only half way through Turkey , I think I have to move faster . But for you yes stay in Rome or Italy as long as there are interesting things to see , we might have to come back here too Spring time in Europe ( the way it was supposed to be , is very nice too , We can look at Frostfell customs around Europe too .

Good Day ROAD TRIPPERS!!!! Today I thought we would just have a relaxing day of fun and games!!!! So we are not hiking through the countryside or trekking through ruins, no creeping through crypts, or whispering as we tiptoe through museums. I thought we could use some relaxing but wild time so today we will be visiting the fun and games side of Rome, at least some of them and some we will save for another day!!!! So get your swim gear and anything else you need and lets get out there!!!! Our first stop today is Hydromania. This is a 90,000 square meter water park located on the outskirts of Rome. They have other things than just slides. They have sunbeds and umbrella, jacuzzi tubs, a large shopping area, 4 bars, restaurants, water aerobics, and more. I have purchased electronic bracelets for everybody and topped them up with €5,000, so you can eat, drink, and shop to your heart's content. Should you need more, let the Cabana Boys know and they can add more for you. The shopping area has sportswear and non-sportswear, Hydromania branded clothing and items, jewelry, designer goods, and more. Just go wild and don't worry about the price, remember the sky is the limit since we are spending virtual money!!!! I have also reserved the largest cabinets they have for everybody, when we get inside, select a cabinet, input a 6 digit electronic pin of your choosing, and then put whatever you do not wish to lug about in the cabinet, the pin will be good until the close of business tonight. Here is a link to their website: https://www.hydromania.it/acquapark-roma/ I found this stop and remembered how much Schmet loved it the last time we went to one. So we are going to Fly X. This is a Vertical Wind Tunnel. Here is a link to their website: https://flyx.it/en/ Now a visit to JoyVillage. This is an Entertainment Center. They have Bowling, Billiard, and an Arcade with Video Games and Pinball machines, you get tickets for any money you spend and you can cash the tickets in for prizes. Everybody has a card that is pre-filled with €500 have a blast playing games, eating, they have food and bars, whatever you wish to do here!!!! Here is a link to their website: https://www.joyvillage.it/en Next we are off to Extraball. This is an Arcade with billards, pinball, slot machines, and electronic gambling such as baccarat and roulette, skeeball, and more. Again, you get tickets for playing and can redeem them for prizes. Everybody has a pre-loaded card with €500 on it. They also have food and a bar. Have a blast!!! Off we go to the Time Elevator Rome 5D Experience. We will be seeing all three shows they have, The History of Rome, The Birth of Life, and the House of Terror. They have a nice gift shop as well with books and more. Here is a link to their site: https://www.time-elevator.it/ Our last stop today will also be our first stop tomorrow as our tickets include suites in the hotel. We are visiting Cinecitta World. This also includes Roma World and a suite in the hotel for the night, and Eat Like an Ancient. Everybody has a pre-loaded card with €15,000, blow it and spend more if you want, just call a Cabana Boy to reload you!!!! This is like the Italian Universal Studios. It is a very good thing we have time delays that I have set very, very, very, very slow today, plus, I am going to warp us backwards when we arrive here so that we are arringing here when they open at 11 am, even though we will have been seeing other things all day. Here is a link to their website for Cinecitta World and Roma World: https://www.cinecittaworld.it/it https://www.romaworld.com/it Cocktail Hour will be at 6 pm and dinner at 7 pm at Roma World.
ok I Cyrrena gives you an easy day , I will chase you around all the harder wipes her wipe , move it tipsters. You are not on vacation Just kidding I got a fun place to go to too , it's just a little detour and side trip , but I just had to show you this place . We are heading to Dubai to the Miracle Garden , I hope nobody is allergic . this videos are nice https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=17WePQosrKA 13 minutes https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_ua3o_pPIsY 18 minutes The night tour
And because there is so much to see in Dubai I booked us suits in the only 7 stars hotel in the world the BURJ AL ARAB https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Burj_Al_Arab https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x7NfLTr36zg 50 minutes documentary interesting I pick that big fish, that's staring at me , he looks yummy tennis anybody ? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XS5Wv2qGWy4 the fountain Burj Al Arab , Jumeirah Meeting Room https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oRG5wUH0BWc Restaurant tour 30 minutes gorges Different suits https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oRG5wUH0BWc 4 minutes https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x7NfLTr36zg 4 minutes https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aUcGkTwd2Zw 6 minutes Dubai Burj Al Arab Jumeirah Beach Hotel this hotel is on the same property and costs a little less my souvenir real gold with real crystal
The global Village : https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Global_Village_(Dubai) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v07A6g0TxL8 11 minutes https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J4_c-JH5gFM 13:30 minutes awe that was way to short , good video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d2LU80gevOM 16 minutes really good too don't be afraid you won't starve , you can get food from around the world here , and it won't cost you an arm or a leg . this place is like the Epcot Center in Florida , only here most people wear Arab outfits and head dresses and they don't speak English with each other and that in this place the focus is more on Asia and Africa . When you have watched the video about how the Burj Al Arab was build you know that the whole thing was the idea of the back than crown prince . So within the last years Dubai has become a important tourist destination , with lots of theme parks like this one . you can rent shopping carts ( you need those ) and wheelchairs here
Ok going back to the first one I started looking at today. The flower place. That place is amazing, and of course I love the flower kitties
