Arriving in Rome was like stepping out of a musty, crowded room and into fresh air. Everything was just so open. Breathable. Fresh. The Tiber river wound it's way through the beautiful city, bridges of wonder arching their way across it. Rich with vibrant history, Rome was filled with tourists, a flood of tourists flowing in from every direction. I really loved this city. I had only been in it for all of fifteen minutes.
We checked into the hotel and started planning for our last six days in Italy. I was so excited about Rome. It had so much history! It made me dizzy just thinking about all of it. As they say, when in Rome...do as the Romans do...
We returned the rental car and started exploring Rome. Founded in 753 BC by Romulus, brother of Remus, it was a city crammed full with architectural wonders and historical sights.
Rome was such a beautiful place. The Tiber river wound it's way through the city, a fresh, green body of water, never-ending in its flow. The buildings made of stone were mostly connected with others. In fact, it looked rather like Paris! Yes, this was Rome
