When in Rome...

make sure to see all the sights.  As you may recall from a previous post of mine, I adore all things Italy.  Here are some photos of some of my favourite sights from around the city.

The Pantheon

The Spanish Steps

Fontana di Trevi

Seriously, what a beautiful city... I miss it so much!

Gladiators and Classic Architecture

In all my travels there is no country that has resonated as much for me as Italy.  The people, the scenery, the food, it is all amazing.  What I love most is that you are always stumbling upon amazing buildings.  You can be walking down the street amongst modern skyscrapers and then turn a corner to find a gorgeous ancient monument.  Needless to say, the Colosseum is on most people's list of must sees when they visit Rome.  I took this photo one night not realizing that one of the "gladiators" just happened to be walking across the street at the same time.  I love that he became slightly blurred but that you can still make out his gladiator sandals and his costume.
