Moon River

When I took these two pictures in Piazza Navona, Rome, a street basker was playing Moon River in the background. Come to think of it, Moon River brings back good memories and so does Italy. A picture tells a thousand words and here are the pictures of Rome and Florence!

Renaissance Rome

It was surreal to wander through the palaces in the Vatican City which housed the popes and where artists like Michelangelo and Raphael left their beautiful marks. Although the trough of people made it difficult to really sit back and appreciate their work, the magnitude of their commissioned works both amazed and touched me.

Rainy Rome

It was raining all day when we went to the Colosseum yesterday. It was such a cold cold day. In the end, we skipped the Roman Forum and surrounding attractions around the area and went shopping at Spagna - the infamous spanish steps instead. We weaved in and out of the branded shops like LV, Gucci etc. It was amazing to see so many chinese around - its like the bags were free!
Leaving the room in a few minutes to the Vatican City. Hope Rome is no more rainy today!
