Rome first day,continued

tanyaplint, April 25, 2019

We have had a fun first day in Rome. The weather is beautiful, and the city is very clean.

We asked the driver who took us to our apartment last night if the cars stopped for you if you were on a zebra crossing. He assured us yes, but today we have proven that theory wrong.

You have to watch the cars in every direction.

We’ve had our first gelato which was very yummy.

Mariola went shoe shopping and she was in heaven although it was not my idea of shoe shopping 😊

    Shoe heaven for some

    We did lots of sight seeing and did a little tour of the most beautiful church called St Johns Basilica. Truly amazing. The craftsmanship was exquisite.

    Off to dinner now !

    A quick explore of Chianti

    May 26, 2019

    To the east of where we are staying spreads the famous Chianti region. When we examine the map roads seem to travel from north to south with not many traversing across implying significant flow of mountains or hills. All the roads show extreme tortuosity and we decide that this is…
