Trip to Rome 2011: Todays walkies brought us...

Todays walkies brought us to the following sites. I'll post pictures in a later post.

  • Fontana di Trevia
  • Piazza del Parlamento with the parlament (nice doors with angel statues)
  • Piazza Magdalena, then via Via Pantheon to Pantheon.
  • Piazza della Minerva, then Corso Vittorio Emmanuelle, until we got to Piazza del Gesù.
  • From there down to the magnifically white Il Vittorio.
  • Then we wandered down the old road Via dei Fori Imperiali, saw a bit of Forum Romanum frim above and got to Colisseum. But Forum Romanum and Colosseum had already closed, so we instead braved Rome's "metropolitano" or underground. We took the metro from Colosseum to Termini (the great train station), and from there to Piazza di Spagna. During rush hour, non the less.

We survived! And we had FUN! Just me, Micke and my brother Harald.

After we had a pause back at the hotel, we ate very expensively at a place called Blanko. Iuh! Although the place was nice. Real nice. Did I mention it was pricey?

Then, we had a short adventure that involved the local Spar (food store). Best improptu food we've eaten so far: back at our hotelroom we had roasted chestnuts, chiabatta and cheap red wine. And I got to eat yellow (!) peaches.
