Phew- everything in the yard grew like crazy while I was gone.
Note one---do Not land in a foreign country with only 20 euros, knowing that would not get you to the hotel in a taxi----my AMEX card would not work in the cash machine! So after that little hitch, I did meet up with Sue and Joel (sister and BIL)
First day- took taxi to Piazza del Popolo in north Central Rome, to walk down to Piazza de Spagna,(Spanish Steps) and Trevi Fountain. People walk all over the narrow streets, with motorcycles and small cars squirming past you.
