My Roman Holiday

Ok, so more on Rome.
I am not princess. I did not take a sleeping pill before going out and then fall asleep on a genteelman and upon waking, go on a vespa ride. But I did go to the Spanish steps (ahh... the water from the water fountain tasted so good).
Actually, all throughout Rome there were water fountains. Soo Good! So, after this picture was taken, we went to go back to our hotel. But the metro was closed. That happened twice to me. Both times I was determined to walk back to the hotel ... however, not everyone was so enthusiastic with that idea, though (think of walking west of St. Peter's).
We went to a lot of churches and sadly I have trouble keeping them all straight in my mind. But I really liked seeing Caravaggio's paintings where they were intended to be seen -- not in a museum -- and same with Bernini's St. Teresa of Avila ... and Michelangelo's Moses.
It was really fun - Meg and I went on the Metro for the first time and on our foreheads was tatooed FOREIGNER! TOURIST! and this nice old man told us to go to the Etruscan museum - because it really surprised him. So much so that he went 5 times. :) he was funny...
Marta and I went to Nutunno for an afternoon. We went to the church where St. Maria Goretti is ... and to the ocean. We met these two elderly women on the train (who thought we were English) and then this really sweet old couple. It is so good to meet people, especially when all that are common are facial expressions and gestures.
