ROME, ITALY

The most famous of the Roman fountains, is Treve Fountain. Romans prided themselves
for the availablity of water distribution throughout the city through a system of aquaducts,
and where-ever these aquaducts came together it was a tradition to build a fountain.! So
beautiful fountains all over the city & very pretty all lit up at night! We signed up for a
night tour of the city & ending up with dining in a Roman Restuarant that didn't start till
9:00 p.m. & got seranaded by a couple of musicians. One of them was a very famous
Italian flutist & was he ever good!! Wish I could of gotten one of his C.D.'s Mama Mia was
he good!! Could of listened all night!! They like to eat late!!
Me & Napolean!!

Wouldn't you know they closed Vaatican City the day we were in town because the

Pope decided to show himself. I had noticed earlier in the day all these Brides & Grooms

just walking all over the streets toward this area. That's where they were headed, to

receive a blessing from the Pope.

This is one of the entrances to Vatican City & those guys in blue are the SWISS GUARD.

Kelly said he didn't like getting his picture taken. But they are known for their military

prowess & trustworthiness & guard Vatican city & were hired to guard Nobility in olden

days.
