Rome, baby!

Taken with my iPhone just hours ago.  Landed in Rome after 24 hour journey: car to train to bus to plane to bus to plane to train to taxi to hotel. 

Walked across the Castel Sant' Angelo bridge, with its Bernini angels.
Admired more Bernini sculpture at Piazza Navona.  Had first of daily gelatos -- cocco e melone. 

Visited every church that was open.  Not only is each one spectacularly beautiful and ornate, but they are cool and you can sit there as long as you like!  Rome is hot and short on benches...Have had spaghetti carbonara twice, and lots and lots of water, con gas.

Tomorrow the workshop group gathers in Orvieto and we begin our Umbrian adventure!
