First few days in Rome have been awesome! Most of the locations we are seeing for a second time and enjoying them even more.
· Campo dei Firori – A crazy busy outside market with every kind of vendor imaginable. It is awesome!
· Trevi Fountain – Rumor has it that if you throw coins into the fountain you will get to return to Rome. AND I know for a fact that it works because I threw my penny in four years ago and here we are!
· Travestevere - A great neighborhood full of shops and excitement.
· Spanish Steps - Ffilled with cute teenagers waiting to meet other cute teenagers.
· Colloseum – No, we didn’t see any gladiators but we did see it “lit on fire” at night for an art exhibition. Spectacular!
· Pantheon – Domed temple that you can’t miss.
· Roman Forum – The main square for Ancient Rome.
· And many piazzas - All gorgeous and worthy of wine and lingering! We sure will miss that 12:00 wine in a piazza!
Our legs are sooooo exhausted and our cheeks hurt from smiling.
Hi there,
ReplyDeleteI came to your blog from the review you provided on VRBO.com as my wife and I are renting the very same apartment in Rome. Thanks for the tips, this is our first trip to Italy and your reviews were most helpful. Carmela has been great to work with. Any other tips would be most appreciated.
Best regards,
Neil
