When in Rome (Part II)

Some more photos of Rome last weekend. Highlights: St Angel's castle, the Forum, the Spanish steps at night, ordering Grappa (which we mistakenly thought was something similar to wine), paging through Italian Vogue, and making homemade Gnocchi and tomato sauce for a perfect Italian dinner.

When in Rome (Part I)

Back from Italy! I spent 3 days in Rome, visiting Anna, and the city was even more beautiful then I'd remembered from my visit four years ago. On the agenda were: trying every gelato shop in Rome (almost), tossing a coin into the Trevi Fountain, seeing the Colosseum and the Vatican, eating a true Italian dinner, and watching the sun set over the city from Anna's rooftop patio in Trastevere. Well, let's hope the coin toss was on my side, and I'll be back in Rome again someday xx
