Rome at Night....




What could be more fun than a night tour of Rome???


Our first stop was the Fountain Trevi...
But first there was a bit of a hike to get there...
through narrow streets...
past open air food stands...
and into the courtyard crowd...


The lights took on a magical halo...


Still crowded...the Fountain Trevi...
(with a little help from Lightroom)


On the way back, some of the street vendors were selling
this cool light thingy...


Dean Martin
(Click on the song!)


The one problem with our night tour...
the bus driver drove past the sights at a 30mph clip!!!
Hard to get a good pic of the colosseum by moonlight!!!


We did stop at the Piazza Navona to see the Four Rivers Fountain by Bernini...
Unfortunately...the fountain had no lighting at all...
so no photos of the fountain...
but there was this cool street scene....


I think next time we'll check out Rome at night on our own!!!
