So Much To See ... So Little Time!



I'm glad the weather forecasters again got it wrong.  There have been moments of rain, the best part of which is watching the umbrella and poncho sellers appear, on cue, right out of nowhere! I resorted to my umbrella only once and took the other as a sign that it was time for lunch.  

Have walked and walked. Vatican to Spanish Steps, to Trevi Fountain and Pantheon (again).  Pre-Dinner drinks in Piazza Navona followed by a lovely dinner in a ristorante not far from there with Sue, Tim, Anne and Mark.  Sharing stories of our day's adventures and also finding ourselves doing the reality check of 'Is this real? Are we really here?  Did we just attend a most amazing wedding in a Roman castle?!'



 



 


 
One more day to explorer the eternal city.  Comforting to know it's 'eternal' so what you can't see in four days will still be here when you come back, which you will, if you made your donation to the 'Trevi Fountain Return Tourist Fund'! 

School tomorrow ... or actually right now Sydney time! Hope the short week makes it a little easier.

  1. Enjoy the rest of your time in the eternal city.
    Thank you for your birthday wishes, wish I was there rather than here!

  2. Well time is running out. Soon you will be returning to us with all your tales. I think I deserve a special mention for my effort to respond every day- gold star??? Day one is over. We managed to teach everything we planned but time slots did not match. Feet on the ground and running again. off to mark books. Enjoy the last days of your
    European travels.
