Thank you!
Actually Rome isn't on our itinerary this time, but we were there 2 years ago and yes, did the Pantheon. I absolutely fell in love with all of ancient Rome when I wasn't expecting the city to hit me like it did. We were supposed to be in Venice for a second time last year and the fucking Iceland volcano cancelled our trip, so keeping fingers crossed for no complications this time.
This'll be my second visit to Florence with perhaps a side trip to Sienna before both of us are seeing Milan for the first time (for a Last Supper pilgrimage and also personal reasons on my end....)
