Rome Day 3: More Things to See

For Day 3 in Rome, our last day, we decided on more sightseeing of historical sights here and there.

First we went to the Spanish Steps, yes, we climbed up to the top of them where the church is. There were lots of people viewing the fountain and the stairs, vendors selling food and flowers, artists selling paintings and caricatures. It was a busy place!


Then we trundled out way over to the Pantheon, which I had been wanting to see the whole trip! There were several cafes outside and all I kept thinking was how cool it would be to say "Yeah, I eat lunch outside of the Pantheon" every day!


We also went back to the Trevi Fountain during the day. It was still crowded, and still had the same carvings and statues, but it was nice to see in the daylight as well as at night.


We had lunch at an unknown plaza with more fountains and statues. The cafe we were in was in the right side of this picture. Behind us was yet another large, brick church with lots of statues.


After lunch, we went to the train station and headed off to Florence for the rest of our Italy trip!
