Food and Flora

 The fall is not the best time to get pictures of flowers around Rome, but there are still a few that can be found. I see lots of flowers from balconies, but I'm not 100% sure that they are real.  Everywhere you go, you can find fountains like this all over Rome. This one is just down the road from us, about a half a block. They date back to when people didn't have running water and they needed to get "good" water from somewhere.      We have had some wonderful food since we returned to Rome. One of my favorite things to do is order bruschetta. I was amazed at the different types of bruschetta that there is.                          The FOOD! Such yummy pizza, pasta and pannini!                    And of course the dessert!

Trevi Fountain

We took the bus and train to get to the Trevi Fountain. We had not seen it on our visit to Rome 3 years ago, so I really wanted to visit it this time. The Trevi Fountain is beautiful!  Listen to the song!        The crowds are not bad, if fact they are a little depressing. But it is nice to visit when you can actually see the fountain. Just to prove I was there and didn't just download pictures from the internet.
