Bella Roma
I dare you not to fall in love…

Inside the museum at the Colosseo

It’s a museum – there has to be artifacts, right?

Piazza Mignanelli – directly outside of our apartment

Restaurants beneath our window made for a very colorful
late-night party atmosphere. Combine that with the wild seagulls
that chose to sleep during daylight hours, and you realize
one reason why the Romans probably like their caffe’ so strong.

Surprising they let you take photographs of the paintings –
without a flash though, that is why they came out so dark.

Oh so beautiful, I recognize a couple of these places, you made me go back to my carefree days long long time ago when I traveled solo in Europe…such beautiful places, places that make you feel ‘things’…be in awe of humanity…of beauty, of the power of creative spirit. Thank you for sharing these magnificent images of your trip to Italy.
