Day Eight and Nine - Calming Down and Getting Ready

or...how Rome is Still so Nice even on Lazy days!

We took a couple of days off from the drive to travel around and visiting different places. We are still busy planning and checking around, but we did not travel as much. The temperature continues to favour us. Even though it is raining right now, in the early evening, threatening for us not to be able to go for our usual Italian 3-scoop ice-cream trip for Marco, we will face the weather and go visit an old high school friend of mine: zia Lalla.

Michele and I traveled a bit to the Pantheon, which we easily reached with 7 stops by bus and a quick walk. Different colours around when the skies are not as clear, but the feeling of walking around ancient history is the same. At least for me.

We dine with my uncle tomorrow and will venture a few more corners of this wonderful city of mine, to make sure the undersigned has enough photo shots for the trip. I would not want to fail and not reach my quota (usually around 6-7,000 pics per trip).

Enjoy what I get to post - I will add a few more of videos when we go for a new full day trip. In the meantime the kids look forward to starting summer camp on Monday.
