It looks like there were a few forumers in Italy over the Christmas period. The missues and I flew into Rome on boxing day.
It's the first time I've been to Rome, and it exceeded my expectations. A wonderful and historic city. At the risk of overkill,
here are some of my shots.

More to come....

Nice pics.

Looks like some bits of Europe are totally hawt and some are just plain old and decrepit.

The old peeling paint on building's facades does match the brown/orange city's character though. There is still a lot room for improvement especially public transportation. I feel sorry for commuters who have to drive everyday. The surrounding of the Vatican City was like hell on Earth and within the Vatican walls was like heaven because of no vehicle traffic...just human traffic. :D

I've not been to Italy, but was about to say that the tenements looks like / reminds me of Rijeka, no doubt this is where it comes from.

good pictures especially in st peters
