Walking through Rome

Now it was just the four of us, and we decided to walk through Rome to visit the sights.

 From our place we hit the streets. It was only a 10min walk to the Tiber.

 The narrow cobble streets were nearly empty in the early morning.
 Vespas everywhere, so much easier to drive through the streets. There we special miniature garbage trucks and buses, and we saw quiet a few cars getting stuck

We made it to the Campo Dei Fiori - so many beautifully displayed veggies and fruits. 
 

 We had here a early lunch, and even Nogusa joined us - he had been grabbing for our food and just staring at us while eating. And he loved his piece of Banana.

 Meats
 Fish
 Little cute corners everywhere.

 And fountains, fountains, fountains.
 Here is Neptune battling an octopus.
 Break for Gelato (wearing octopus shirts).
 Dramatic play

 Praying at church
 


  And so many people.
 Studying the map was not always easy.


 Tired

 Taking  a break on the Spanish steps.


 And here was finally some space to run!


 Then the sun started to set. We bought some sandwhiches to go and had dinner on the hill of the Villa Borghese looking at Rome.






 Riding on lions.
 Once the sun had set the air cooled down and felt cleaner. Silvan ran (really ran) all the way back to the hotel a bit over a mile. I guess there was lots of energy still left.
