Having been advised October was the best month in which to visit Rome, I waited five months to take the 3-hour trip and was not disappointed! Here's a spectacular mid-October weekend in Rome through pictures:
|
Two of my travel buddies, my English friend Henry & Raff. |
|
Fiat 500 in proportion to a 21-year-old Brit. |
|
The Friday night we arrived, the sky looked amazing. |
|
Saturday was a rainy day, so we decided to head to the Vatican Museums. My Belgian friend Oli poses with Constantine's head. |
|
"No pictures," the signs said... |
|
The Sistine Chapel in all (well, half) of its glory. |
|
The massive Basilica of St. Peter left us speechless. Thoughts were pondered on that day. |
|
From the outside at dusk. Beautiful. |
|
My friends and I were lucky enough to meet up with my American friend Jackie, who teaches in Rome. She's a great hostess! It was a great way to wrap up our Saturday. |
|
Sunday = the Colosseum & the Roman Forum! |
|
Adele's knitted cap had to be photographed. |
|
Oh, hello, Roman Forum! |
|
Great picture-taking opportunity! |
|
"Veni..." |
|
"Vedi..." |
|
Roman subway grafitti! |
|
Before leaving, the four of us each had a slice of watermelon for a euro. Friendship and watermelon, haha. I'll be back, Rome! |
