this shot was taken last fall on my first night in Rome, actually my first night in Italy...I've spent a lot of time in Europe over the years, but always seemed to be saving Italy for some special, yet undefined occasion. So when some friends asked me to join them on a cruise of the western med last fall (another first) i jumped on it. I was in Rome on my own a few days on each end of the cruise.
I had literally just arrived when this picture was taken...I was shattered but resisted the urge to go straight to bed to come out in front of my hotel for a quick dinner at a cafe, which to me signals the end of that bleary in-transit state of travel....My hotel was located on the Piazza della Rotonda, directly in front of the Pantheon (thanks to pebs suggesting a good area for my base!).
The atmosphere was fab, and there were lots of folks dining alone at the cafe so it felt very comfortable....anyway, i was going back through my archives and this picture really took me back to that night....some good mental travel on a rainy winter's day...
Rome
Rome, Italy, Roma, Italia. Art, mural along the Tiber River. This monumental frieze was made by affixing stencils to the walls and then power washing away the grim around them. The figures reference Roman mythology and history, but are entirely the artist's creations. The spectacular work of public art, which spans 550 meters (1,800 feet) will disappear as the walls become increasingly dirty again.
