2 hours and 51 minutes

We arrived in Leonardo da vinci airport at 4:30pm, had no problem getting our luggage and we got a taxi from the hotel,Kolbe hotel

we arrived at the hotel at 5:30 pm, so we decided to just walk around the city of Rome and marvel at the beautiful city

The next morning we got up at 7:30am for a busy day of sight seeing and gettting to experience everything the city has to offer 

We got a bus with other sight seers to the Osita antica,

It is an underrated gem, it contains the amazingly well preserved remains of Rome's ancient port.
Its quiet, fascinating and just brilliant to explore.

We finished walking around the Osita antica at about noon and we decided to go to a small restaurant near by, i got a lovely carbonara and my friend got a traditional italian pizza.

The next place we were visiting was the colosseum,

Once the largest amphitheatre of the empire, where gladiators,criminals and lions fought for their lives, to now one of the most amazing and beautiful places to see in Rome, honestly a must see.

In the next few days i visited loads of amazing places around Rome, from sight seeing to meeting new people and expierencing everything that Rome has to offer, we stayed a week in total and i plan on coming back in the future.

We got a flight straight from Rome to Warsaw.

The flight was 2 hours and 8 minutes

We arrived in warsaw at 6:45 pm, we got a taxi straight from the airport to the hotel we were staying in, The westin Warsaw

it is a fabulous 5 star hotel, staff are so friendly and the food is amazing, we went down to the restaurant on the first night and prepared ourselves for the busy days ahead of us

We got up at 6:30 that morning ready to catch a bus to the old town,

It contains atmospheric alleys,squares and cozy cafés, create a unique sense of history.

Its a great way to get away from the bustle of city life and its a lovely place to visit.

We spent all day there, we got lunch in a lovely small cafe and the food was to die for.

We stayed a total of five days and just spent our time enjoying what Warsaw city has to offer and spending our time in the beautiful old town that we fell in love with.

We arrived home to Dublin happy that we had learnt more about other places around the world and it is an expierence i will never forget.
