One of my favourite places I have visited
when cruising has to be Rome, Italy is the oddest of places beautiful scenery,
fields and fields of sunflowers, hustle and bustle and graffiti. I could
not get over the graffiti when we fist visited Rome. How on earth could anyone
desecrate such a beautiful place and why don't they clean to up?
We have done a few tours of Rome but
decided to go it alone last time, it was great have the flexibility to do and
go exactly where we wanted to, without being ushered along by tour guides. It
was easy getting the train it was a 5-minute walk from the port, and cost about 24 euros
for the 4 of us. The train was comfortable and air conditioned, which made the 1-hour
journey comfortable.
Our main aim of the day was to visit the
Trevi Fountain, Chris's Lovely Granddad had visited Rome during the war and had always told the family that throwing a coin in the
Trevi Fountains ensures you will one day re visit Rome, and the fountain.
Unfortunately he was never able to this in his lifetime so we decided his great
grandchildren would this for him.
