Rome

One of the quattro fontane, the rest of the pictures are sideways and I don't know how to rotate them on here

Solo bird hanging out smack dab in the middle of the Trevi. He wouldn't move the whole time and just stared at everyone.

Random picture

This is the view from the road I take to get to the Centro. It's a semi-steep curving bridge and this is the view from the edge of the road.  It's literally next door to the main school/4 min away from where I live.

Centro Storico

 This is where everyone sits and drinks and hangs out at night (the main Duomo and fountain) The fountain isn't on right now though.










This is also where all the shops are, instead of being a circular area like most Centro Storici this one is just a long road that is split into one main road and then small side streets. Once you get to the end of the road you hit the edge of this layer of the mountain and there is a park where you can look off the edge and see the city


This is a really cool bar, it's part of a hotel I think...it's on the edge of one of the layers of the mountain and has all of these cool couches.


This is another side of the Centro - if you keep walking you hit this dead end and can look off of the edge and see all of the city.

Tiempetto and Torre

These are the Temple and Tower right by where I live. People sit on the grass and hang out/read. Today is Italy's Independence day so not many people are out.

  The Tower (the Museum is inside) next the Temple where you can see a Panorama of the city. The Museo and Torre cost 3 euro to enter.

First Night in Italy

Paola's Italian "appetizer" dinner:
homemade breadsticks, bruschetta, prosciutto e melone, cheese and salami, grilled zucchini, mozzerella, and infused olive oil (spicy).




The view outside of Paola's apartment (around 6am)
