Rome, day four
This was the grocery store we went to a couple of times. What we thought was interesting was that it was closed all day on Sundays.
On the opposite side of the Piazza di Spagna
The girl showcasing the first McDonalds in Italy.
Where we enjoyed a couple of CBOs.
The Via Condotti
The Girl was sad I misplaced my wallet for the next couple of hours, on purpose.
There were these guys on just about every corner. Chestnuts, roasted.
Breakdancers.
Small flea market we walked through.
The Spanish Steps
Sitting on the steps

From there we walked to the Trevi Fountain
I didn't know until visiting, but a traditional legend holds that if you throw a coin into the fountain, you're ensured a return to Rome. Toos 'em with your right hand over your left shoulder into the fountain.
Then we saw this. Yes folks, a hot priest calendar. The Girl almost got it, and was sad later on because she hadn't.
Back to the Pantheon, this time it was open. There is only one source of light in the building, a hole in the middle of the dome. No glass covering, just open air.
We sat and watched these guys for a while. There are people dressed as gladiators everywhere. They'll walk up to you, try and get you to take a picture with them, then ask you for money. It was amazing how many people thought they did this for free.
Back to the hotel
Then out for some dinner.
Subway back to the hotel
This was on the wall of the station nearest the hotel. We regularly said, 'Hi'

Our last night in Rome. The next morning we take a train to Florence.
