RomeFrom the lush greenery of Ireland it was off to the (supposedly) warm Mediterranean climate of Italy, first stop Rome.It quickly became apparent that Rome wasn't built in a day, nor would it be restored in one either. Every major site was covered in scaffolding, which made picture-taking a disappointment. It was at this point that we discovered our true essence: cafe tourists. We moved from cafe to cafe with some inconvenient sightseeing in between. Did we mention rain - it rained 2 days out of the three that we were there. |
