Pictures of Rome

As you might know, last December I went to Rome for a couple of days. And I promissed you some pictures.

So here it goes!

Of course I started the journey at Schiphol Airport (near Amsterdam).


There is so much to see in Rome. Way too much. And a small sheep like me always has to watch out for pickpockets (or sheeppockets) and those dangerous Roman scooters.

I am a sheep, I like to bounce, but the Roman espresso's (great stuff!) really made me bounce from ancient Roman pilar to medieval house to the next fountain.

Yeah. Fountains. They are all over the place. Every square has at least one of 'm. So, some fountain pictures!


Here I am at the Mascherone fountain in the Via Giulia. The total count of fountains will be high if they start calling public water taps fountains ;-)


You can't see much of the Forum Romanum, but I am there. Really. At night, on my way to discover the night life (which existed in my case of fountains by night).


This is one of the fountains at the Piazza Navona. The place to meet? Well, I did not meet any other sheep out there. So much for a meeting point...


The most famous fountain of Rome and perhaps even the world: the Trevi Fountain.
It is both enourmous and beautiful. All those detailed sculptured figures. Bigger than life size! A marvelous (or marbelous??) job!
I guess it is one of the most photographed fountains in the world. Millions of photo's are made of this photo? What makes this so special? Me! It is one of the very rare photo's of the Trevi fountain with a plush toy sheep. :-D
