Rome

We were fortunate enough to have 3 more days in this beautiful city before leaving there today for Siena. Fabulous weather, sights and memories!

Piazza Navonna - Fountain of the
four Rivers with Egyptian obelisk,
 in the middle of Piazza Navonna.

Trevi Fountain, looking stunning after just
being reopened!

Legend holds that in 19 BC thirsty Roman soldiers were guided by a young girl to a source of pure water thirteen kilometers from the city of Rome. The discovery of the source led Augustus to commission the construction of a twenty-two kilometer aqueduct leading into the city, which was named Aqua Virgo, or Virgin Waters, in honor of the legendary young girl. The aqueduct served the hot Baths of Agrippa, and Rome, for over four hundred years. Wikipedia
