When in Rome


Another flashback to 2013.  In May, my birthday treat was a trip to Rome staying in a charming boutique hotel in Campo de Fiori.  This is a great central location - we walked everywhere - with a daily market and surrounded by bars and restaurants from where you can people watch to your hearts content.  I  have never been to a city so full of history - and tourists!  But we had a wonderful time visiting ancient ruins, museums, galleries, gardens, cathedrals and squares, with plenty of time to stop for coffee, drinks and delicious meals.  And, of course I made sure to throw some coins into the Trevi fountain.
