    Such fun to watch! Small tip. Always carry a small umbrella in hot places, They can be used to provide shade too, not just shelter from the rain. We do this a lot in South Africa.

    I totally agree with you that traveling in Europe during summer is overrated. After living in Thailand for 9 years I can’t stay without aircon any longer. Also, weather wise it’s much better in spring and autumn. Summers in Europe are too hot now.

      Haha yeah I grew up in Hong Kong where the air conditioning is equally aggressive and lovely 😅 I really think Europeans need to get on board with AC. And iced coffee lol. They should give it a chance!

    What's up Top Flight Family! Hope all is well! Thanks for another great trip share! Yeah Rome, to me, is not the greatest city in Europe. In my planning for my European trip I have decided that my trip to Italy will be Venice and the Amalfi Coast definitely. I do want to see the coliseum but that's about it for Rome. I will say that those sandwiches looked amazing and I'm glad you guys finally found some awesome authentic Italian food, unlike on your trip to Venice☺Thanks again for an amazing trip share and I'll see you guys in the next city! Be well, Be safe and Cheers!

    • @TopFlightFamily
      @TopFlightFamily  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Yes the Amalfi Coast is beautiful! Just research carefully where you stay. I’ve heard cabs are hard to find and many places require multiple flights of stairs to get to if you’re walking, so it can get exhausting!

    I was in Rome in 1984 and 1985 and the pick pockets were notorious back then as well. We were on a crowded bus and my mother fought off a guy that had his hand in her large basket type purse (no zipper). We had no idea this kind of thing was happening in Rome.

    New sub here. We are also a homeschooling family and since we were stationed in Europe with the military, it’s fun to see some places we’ve visited here. We have a channel mainly about homeschooling and fun to connect!

    We went to Rome for the first time in May and the weather was perfect - we picked up Trapizzino pockets and went to a craft beer bar down the block every day we were in the city! Great mid-afternoon snack.

    Happy Sunday Topflight family. Oooh. Rome. Nutella? The simple things bring joy 🥹. Love interactive learning for children. Makes it so much more fun and engaging. Cool. The momtrotter. Never heard of pitaschio spread. Think would’ve preferred an herb seasoned olive oil. Appreciate historical educational tours. Understood the heat is distracting. But no A/C in restaurants either? Taxis? Can see not in an Air BnB. Hope the hotel. 3 1/2 hr drive from Rome? Thinking of the 3 hr drive back. Wow. It’s beautiful. Glad it was worth it. Was that a real person in the case at Pompeii? 😮. Oh my. Next dat day self tour. Too cute with your iced coffee ☕️ 😂. The triangular pizza thing looks good. Love rice balls. So how is this pizza by the slice of the size you want priced? You guys did well without the guide. Scammers I guess are worldwide 🤦‍♀️. Yess. It does definitely look worth it. Thanks so much. Appreciate your style of Vlogging. See you next video.

No breakfast included but they're are quite a few coffee/pastry shops nearby. It's not in the touristy area at all but there's a little park nearby with a great gelato shop across from it. And the lights in the shower change colors 😁

    Rome is my favourite European city outside of London. I suggest avoiding Sunmer like any other European city because we're not built for these heatwaves. For me, Paris is overrated! I felt like I was playing hopscotch with dog poop on the walkways 💩, their metro was 🤮 and the locals were not friendly to us unfortunately 😔.

    • @TopFlightFamily
      @TopFlightFamily  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Lol omg the hopscotch 😅 Yeah I don’t really understand why a Mediterranean country like Italy hasn’t gotten down with AC. Like it’s warm most of the year?! Maybe not in the north but def as you move further south. It’s just weird to me
