The next two days were spent mainly walking around the city to see what we could find! The weather remained very warm and sunny and we were surprised at how many tourists there were at that time of the year. While not crowded, it was very busy everywhere.
 |
| There are major works being carried out in the general area of the colosseum - which had its own works going on with large areas covered in scaffolding. |
 |
| It was the 11th November, so there was a remembrance event. |
 |
| Another lovely path along the river - completely deserted. |
 |
| When we first saw this artwork on some steps in Trastevere, we couldn't get a photo and walked back to try & get one. Regrettably a car had been parked at the bottom of the steps and this was the best I could get of the very impressive portrait. |
 |
| Public transport is very well used in Rome and trams/busses/metro are usually full. |
 |
| A coat of paint on the front door becomes a major job when the doors are this size! |
 |
| A very smart entrance to some B&B accommodation. |
 |
| At Pyramid station, there is a tiny museum with old rolling stock from one of the suburban lines into Rome from the Lido on the coast. You could go inside this carriage and it was pretty basic to say the least. I like the little post box on the side of the train. |
