Do what the Romans do...
Rome, ITALY
Cambridge B&B
Day or is it, Night...70! Onwards for a few more or so days!
Hey! Ciao! Bonjourno!
We're here! In ROME!!! Roma to the locals.
And we've just gotten back from the most gorgeous dinner...at a really local restaurant, recommended by the girl at reception....what a beautiful local meal! Serves to ask the locals where they go cos there we were, the only locals not there!
We had saltimboca....which was manufike! Greg has home made spaghetti carbonara...and they served crusty white bread to sop it all up with...the sauce that is...and the ensalada was yummo...smigeoned with balsamic vinegar and virgin olive oil..potatas...and vino...blanco (me) and rosso (greg)!
BELLISIMO!
Just wanted to let you know we survived the 5 hour journey (that took us an hour extra just to account for the italian way of life) and are here...in the capital...and have a great B&B to stay in! We did try the hostels, and the hotels but ended up in a quaint bed and breakfast that is a cross between the two! It's 100 Euro for tonight, and 70 for the next few nights...which is pretty reasonable! Considering the prices in Italy...
Our plans here are to visit Naples, and do some other day trips to Sorrento, Pompai, Capree, Assisi...(if we can manage it!), seek out the Fontand di Trevi to toss a coin for Silvia....
We we also endeavour to find out where on earth we can find the gelato at Allemagna via del Corso (nooo...we couldn't find it on the net Silvia????!) and of course, see the monuments...see the Collessium...look at ruins, see the beautiful views, taste the wine..seek out the history...experience the religion..
And whatever else Rome has to offer...like they say, ^When in Rome, do what the Romans do!!!'
And we plan to!
Averadecci!
PS Yep, too much vino!
