Day 1: Traveling to Rome

We left for Rome on Friday, April 3. Jeff's dad was nice to drive us to the Charlotte airport so we would not have to leave a car at the airport for an extended period of time. We had an overnight flight to Rome, and we landed in Rome, Italy around 8:00 AM on Saturday, April 4.
As you can see, packing was a challenge. We each took one back pack and one carry-on suitcase. You will probably see the same outfits in our pictures, but we wanted to travel light because of all of the train travel.
Leaving for Europe...with all of our luggage!

My awesome co-worker and friend, Jen, was so nice to drive all the way to Charlotte to give us a big send-off...(just kidding!). Jen was leaving the same day to go to Houston for a college fair. She was really excited that she made our Europe vacation pics!
