Rome 5/28-5/29

We walked around Rome for an hour trying to find Grant's professor at the Villa Borghese. We passed the Spanish Steps, Villa Medici, Piazza Popolo before getting to the Galleria Borghese. There we saw many works by Bernini. They were terrific! David, Rape of Persephone, Apollo and Daphne (which was my favorite!) and one of Napolean's sister on a bed. We also walked around the rest of Borghese in the gardens and amongst the trees.

The Piazza Navona with the Four Rivers Fountain.

Was this the Piazza Popolo? Can't remember anymore... haha.

Yay Roma Finale 2009 and the Caffeteria we found and ate at, which was near the Villa Borghese. That day we also visited Crypta Balbi and Palazzo Altemps.

The Trevi Fountain at night. Beautiful!
