So, Patrick and I have been living here for 2 weeks. And Rome is huge so obviously we haven't been everywhere yet. Still, we've wandered around plenty, eaten all over & hit the highlights everyone talks about here. Trevi fountain, Pantheon, Trastevere, Ponte Sisto. Plus we're going on a tour of the Vatican Tuesday morning.
See - here's the Ponte Sisto:
But whenever I travel, I love to try out little restaurants, head down tiny streets, shop (which I've done very little yet!) in cute stores. Plus, since Pat's class doesn't start until 2 PM, we could technically head further afield in the mornings together if something was worth getting up early to see.
So I'm putting forth a challenge: comment to this post with the places you loved when you visited Rome.
I'm a pretty good internet sleuth, so if all you remember is that it was a pizza place that roasted their own peppers, I can help figure out what it's called.
I don't know if you realize this, but blogs are interactive. We post; you comment. That way you can add your thoughts and we can look back on this years from now and remember that it was Martha or Lulu who told us about that amazing shoe store along the via Cavour.
Thanks guys - I'm looking forward to seeing what you write!
