Rome

Always count your stops
I caught a tram into the centre of Rome - which was great - but I didn't make a note of the station that I got on at, and I didn't count the stops - so when I came to return to my campsite I got a bit lost - but I did manage it!

I visited Rome during the cool of the evening - and it was the best time to do it - I had all the monuments to myself!

I got to see the Spanish Steps and the Trevi fountain, but I must admit, I didn't throw my coin in the water!

My second visit to Rome was a little more relaxed, but I still didn't have enough time to see all the things that Rome has to offer - but you always need an reason to come back! I re-visited the Trevi fountain, but I had to laugh as I came around the corner. There was no water in the fountain, and four guys had brooms cleaning the thing. Maybe next time I'll throw that coin!
