JB decided to rent a car and in hindsight, it's a good thing he did or we wouldn't have had so many adventures and wonderful memories.
Once we were able to park, we set out on foot to see as much of Rome as we could. Clearly, we saw the Fountain - and Eleanor wasn't so impressed.
We had a lovely meal in a tiny little sidewalk cafe where the owners brought Eleanor chocolate cookies and Gramps and Daddy at the chocolate off so Mommy was okay with her baby having sugar.
We wandered down alleys and had a race to see who could get there first - clearly I won!
We stumbled upon this beautiful park. Rome is filled with statues and the birds loved this beautiful lady.
We pushed the stroller all over Rome and as you can see, Eleanor took a nap on Daddy while we all took a quick break.
While January in Italy isn't idea vacation weather - it was wonderful. There are some things I wish I had seen - the Vatican, but that just means we can go back again, right?
You can go back again! And when Eleanot'r older, she will love it all the more. It's nice that you're posting the pictures a year after the fact, because it means that on a gloomy weekend, you get to relive these lovely memories.
ReplyDeleteWe will go back again - Italy was amazing. But I want to go to England & Ireland first. g
