Buonjourno Roma

We landed at the Fiumicino Airport, got our luggage and found our driver Manny without a hitch. He was born in Rome and has lived here all his life. As he drove us to our hotel we discussed Roman history, the development of the Italian language and the world situation in general. What a great guy!

He drove us to the Hotel Indigo St. George on Via Giulia, the same hotel we stayed at when we were on a tour of Italy with Uniworld River Cruises back in November of 2014. We popped up to the rooftop terrace to check in with Lisa Saint, our tour organizer, and then came back to the room to put things away.

It was a good trip to Rome with no glitches. Now we will power down and get some rest before we walk the Roman streets tomorrow.Read more
