Roman Holiday Sunday

Sunday was moving day, so it was into a taxi and shift to the Hotel Kolbe in Rome. This Hotel is adjacent to Circus Maximus and our window looks out on to the ruins on Palatine Hill.

After settling in, it was time to break out the umbrella s and rain jackets. We headed down the street to a farmers market where we sampled their wares on the cheap. Then to the Santa Maria Church to test our honesty in the Mouth of the Truth, we must be truthful people because we didn't get our hands cut off. Then walking along the Tiber river and up to the civic area which gives a good view over the area around the Colosseum. 

Back "home" then and got ready for dinner where we met our fellow travelers. Mainly Americans with one couple from NZ, one couple from Canada and five couples from Australia, they seem to be a good bunch

Although it rained today it didn't really stop jus from getting out and about, the previous two days were warm and sunny.
