Day 57, Rome, Trevi Fountain and the Spanish Steps

Saturday, April 27, 2019

We got up late today and had a leisurely time in the apartment. I used the washer. It takes about two to three hours to run a load, the European appliances have much to be said how inefficient in time they are. The load cannot be more than 5 kg which limits the amount of clothes per wash.

We walked to the Pantheon around lunch but the line was very, very long. We will go there tomorrow most likely. We walked to the Trevi Fountain which was about a 25 to 30 minute slow walk from the apartment. Saturday many people were about the streets. The fountain area was no exception. We ate some lunch and then went to the Fountain and took pictures.

Then we decided to walk to the Spanish Steps area. It did not take long to get there. We took pictures. Many people were about there as well. The weather was sunny and temperatures were 69 to 70. We slowly strolled back to the apartment getting back around 4 pm. We took naps.

Then we went to the restaurant we had visited the first full day near the apartment and ordered the lasagna. Their lasagna noodles are thin, the sauce is seasoned very well. It is excellent lasagna which we both enjoyed. We each got an order. I am making a note of this as we have been splitting most meals since Australia. It was that good. I also got a salad and a glass of wine.

We got back to the apartment around 9:45 pm or so. We watched an episode of Midsomers Mysteries I had downloaded of the 20th season then we went to bed.

We took pictures today, but the internet is so slow I have great difficulty in uploading any pictures at this time. Sorry about that. The pictures do add greatly to the narrative.
