Roman Holiday

 

Hey! I’m out here few days early with my good friend Jenn & we explored the city of Rome together! Here are just a few photos from today. Will post more from the trip – but once the workshop starts, not sure if we will be able to update much as we will be in various remote places away from the onilne world. Major good times!

 

Until you take a step inside the Sistine Chapel, you can’t appreciate what Michaelangelo accomplished laying on his back for over 5 years to complete the ceiling art. No photos were allowed so I had to sneak this one from my hip using P mode (not professional – more like say a PRAYER mode) and hoped that I got something decent:

Got to mail out some post cards at the Vatican City – a popular tourist activity near St. Peter’s Church. Some of you lucky folks will be getting a post card from me. :)

 Threw a coin into the Trevi Fountain. Legend says that you will guarantee a return trip back to Rome when you do this. You can also make a wish – so I wished that the Cubs will win world series next year. Is that too much to ask? :)

Having dinner in front of The Pantheon – the oldest building in Rome and highly acclaimed architecturally. The night life in Rome is pretty much amazing. Perfect weather, delicious food, live music and people watching. Perfect evening after a long day of adventuring.

Colosseum still stands tall and mighty. It is recognized as the main symbol of Rome. Rather than a typical day time shot, here is one at night.

Ok back to rest for another full day tomorrow. Buona sera! :)
