Back to The Italian Galleries

We stayed at The Hotel Forum in Rome just across the cobblestone Via Tor de' Conti from the Forum Ruins!











We arrived at the hotel only to discover there was a problem with my camera, we bought an Italian Canon EOS 300D!

We had lunch (and breakfast the following morning before leaving) at the Hotel Forum's Roof Terrace, the food was okay, but the view was spectacular!










We had hot chocolate at the Gran Cafe Rossi Martini in the Piazza del Colosseo with an amazing view of the Colosseum










We had a late night dinner at a little pizzeria near Trevi Fountain
















Coming back in the wee hours we had to shoot a few frames of Sa'ida wandering the streets of Rome in her green caftan before going to sleep ;-)
