In November 2010, Video News host Rick Pettigrew visited Italy for the Borsa tourism trade show. When he returned, he filed this video report on places he visited. Among the sites that he saw and described in Rome were the Colosseum, the Palatine Hill, the Forum and the Pantheon. Then, based in Naples, he toured the fossilized city of Pompeii. Finally, while attending the Borsa trade show, he walked among the awe-inspiring Greek temples at the ancient and very well preserved coastal city of Paestum.
