Last night we threw coins in the Trevi Fountain (home of the Three Coins in a Fountain scene). One coin to return to Rome, two coins for hopeful marriage, and three coins for a needed divorce. We were conservative throwing in a maximum of two coins each.
Next was dinner and Opera at Tenatra; this was a Cafe Concerta. Surprisingly this very entertaining with crowd involvement. The 5 courses were splendid: antipasto, two kinds of pasta, salad, veal and potatoes, and tiramasu. And the wine was plentiful. Ciao!

Ann, I'm just catching up on reading all of your recent posts and it's breathtaking! This trip is so packed full of wonderful sights, I can't wait to have you all home and tell us about it. The Trevi fountain, did you get pictures of people throwing in their coins? The Collaseum must have been harrowing in its time, and I can imagine that you still feel the sadness there. Phil's party was great, lots of people showed up for it, though all of you were missed. He loved the gift card to buy a grill and Bob also got him a gift card for some meat to grill. His kids were there and various friends, it was a great party. I SO appreciate the way you are describing the trip in such detail, I almost feel like I'm there with you! Have a drink for those of us back home and have fun!
ReplyDeleteWe missed all of you, and toasted our friendships and Phil's Birthday many times with some fine vino.
