Paninis and Gelato
31 juli 2022, Italië ⋅ ☀️ 91 °F
After all the walking, we worked up an appetite! Since this was our last full day in Rome, I had a list of sights I wanted to check out. We found a café on the way to the Trevi Fountain and had these HUGE paninis…seriously, we could have split one! The owner twisted my arm to try a local beer, from Ferret Burrow Brewery, an APA, which I was surprised that I liked, since I’m not a huge fan of the IPAs.

From here we made the short walk to the Trevi Fountain that was packed with people throwing their 3 coins, per the legend. My sister had mentioned a gelato shop that was in Eat, Pray, Love, that was nearby. We found Gelato di San Crispino and enjoyed one of many gelatos we have had on this trip. We didn’t have any change for the fountain, so I got some coins 🪙 for Sydney. After that, we had seen a sign for a rooftop bar overlooking the fountain, so we enjoyed some time out of the sun and were happy to meet up with our new cruise friends, Karen and Dennis.Meer informatie

A Tasty Lunch
9 november 2019, Italië ⋅ 🌧 55 °F
Kathy and Bryan ended up eating at a restaurant called Piccolo Arancio. I'm guessing that Bryan was the one who picked it. Kathy was sending me pictures of the food that they ordered. It looks very tasty! I wish that I could have been there.Meer informatie

Pasta
9 november 2019, Italië ⋅ 🌧 54 °F
Kathy loves Italian food and has been wanting to try real Italian pasta for a long time. Once she finally had it, she said that it wasn't quite what she thought it would be. The pasta was a bit hard, as if it wasn't cooked all the way. We'll have to try some more restaurants to see if her meal was undercooked or if this is just the way pasta is eaten here.Meer informatie

Vicus Caprarius, Rome
7 september 2022, Italië ⋅ ⛅ 32 °C
After our well-earned afternoon nap we made our way to Vicus Caprarius, an archeological site underneath the famous Trevi district. Nicknamed the “City of Water” it is an ancient Roman apartment complex dating to the 1st century, established after the Great Fire of 64. The site was discovered in the late 1990s during expansion work on the Cinema Trevi theatre above.

It was amazing to see what has been discovered, with so many artefacts unearthed from the site, including terracotta figurines, African pottery and over 800 coins. The Aqua Virgo, one of the eleven aqueducts of ancient Rome, still discharges some of its water into the pools of Vicus Caprarius, while carrying water to the Trevi fountain.

The water was crystal clear, and inviting in the heat we had been experiencing. It would have been lovely to have a cooling dip, if only that was on offer. It is mind blowing what is still being unearthed in this ancient city and we were so pleased we booked this tour.Meer informatie

Tag 5 der Kulturreise
26 november 2023, Italië ⋅ ☀️ 13 °C
Wieder ein Tag mit Sonnenschein. Rom ist schon eine geile Stadt.
Trotz Feiertag, teilen sich Unmengen von Fußgängern mit Autos die Straßen und engen Gassen. Dazwischen huschen Motorräder und Scooters Kreuz und quer.
Als Fahrradfahrer kennst du weder Rot noch einen Zebrastreifen!
Und keiner regt sich auf, schimpft oder hupt!?
Das lässt meine lange schon gehegte Theorie bestätigen:
Alle wild gewordenen halbstarken Italiener sind nach Deutschland ausgewandert.
Die dümmsten mit den kürzesten Schwänzen kauften sich einen BMW und ließen sich in München nieder. Hier verwechseln sie Tag täglich Hupe und Blinker und führen sich auf wie blöd.
Der Vorteil: in Italien - speziell in Rom lässt es sich wieder leben !!Meer informatie

Leather Craftsmen
31 augustus 2020, Italië ⋅ 🌧 18 °C
Kurz vor unserem Rückweg zum Hotel machten wir noch bei einem der bekanntesten Lederwaren Händlern in Rom halt.

The Leather Craftsmen ist ein kleiner Handwerksladen in der Nähe des Trevi Brunnen, der selbst hergestellte Produkte anbietet.

Die Qualität spricht für sich und natürlich mussten wir dort einfach etwas mitnehmen.

Als freundlicher Bonus der Besitzer wurden direkt unsere Initialien in das Leder gebrannt, was eine ganz persönliche Note ist und man kann direkt einen Blick auf den Arbeitsplatz werfen und bei der Anfertigung zusehen!Meer informatie

Cooks in Action

It must have been so interesting to watch the cooks making all the food. I would have really enjoyed this. Too bad I'm suck at the hotel trying to figure out how to work the bidet.
