When we spent the month in St. Augustine, Florida in January, we took one of the hop-on, hop-off trolleys to get an overview and then made it a point to stop at the places we were interested in visiting over the next few weeks.
That worked well for us in Florida, but our stay in Rome wasn’t long enough to take advantage of returning to visit some of the places on our stops.

I’ve never tried it, I prefer to be free to move around than to depend on an imposed route. But if you are short of time, the bus can tour make you know if you want to come back, or not.

Your last two sentences tell it all for me as well, Marsha.

I agree with Philo. War is so sad and seemingly meaningless deaths. Yet, when one’s life is threatened, there’s not much else a country or a people can do. Coming to the defense of others is a great reason to get involved, but those soldiers who die are never who started the conflict. I’ve been reading Judges in the Bible and the discussion is what peoples are eliminated so that the Israelites could live in the land and worship the Lord freely without idols. In those cases the Israelites were instructed to kill everyone, man, woman, child, and most of all the king. I have a hard time understanding war. Yet, I feel it is important to defend people who are attacked without provocation.

Indeed. We thought the idea of a hop on-hop off tour would be the best of both worlds. We found all the buses were overcrowded and we had to wait for multiple buses before we could get on one that had room. Never again.

Even better, you’ve done wonders then!
