The (finally) comment above comes from our very rainy hike to our hotel from the main Roma Termini train station. Suffice it to say, inkjet printed maps do NOT hold up well in the rain. But we made it, after a bit of wandering with full backpacks and our very wet feet.
We explored the somewhat crowded streets for a bit after a hearty nap, ultimately taking in the Trevi fountain and some cool architecture. The fountain was mobbed with folks all clamoring to get a picture and toss in a coin. We hope to sneak back by late at night this week for a quieter experience.
Our dinner tonight was fabulous. Osso Bucco for Tom and a killer homemade pasta with fresh pepper and reggiano cheese for me. This, of course, was followed up by cappuccino and tiramisu. Yum yum yum.
Off to bed! Hopefully the weather partially holds tomorrow as we hope to see the colosseum and other historical sites.
