The thing with Rome is that you just never know what historic landmark
you might stumble on....
if you head south on Via del Babuino or Via del Corso
you will stumble on Piazza del Populo or Place of the People
it is a huge Piazza were you can take multiple pictures.
On the South end there is the Leonardo da Vinci museum.
This is one of my favorite sight! The Spanish Steps bare of people!
A very rare sight!
The Spanish Steps were about 7 minutes from our hotel!
I am so glad my co-worker recommended this place!

On the top of the stairs there is the Trinita Dei Monti (the Trinity of the Monts).
A lovely church, not as popular as other sights...free to visit (a plus)
Be careful when climbing or descending the steps as there is a lot of wear
and you could loose your footing very easily.
The rain just stopped, so it is a matter of minutes before
the tourists descend on the Spanish Steps like a swarm
of locusts!
I probably already mentioned this...but you do not need to book super expensive tours
in Rome. If you have mobility problems I recommend the Hop on Hop off tour and it is
relatively inexpensive for Rome ...about $36 U.S.
until next time......
Have a great night!

I never tried the hop on hop off but the metro was way better in Rome than I expected, truly a life saver for us. We bought a touristy painting of the Spanish Steps as one of our souvenirs!
Oh all those steps! Lovely but hard for this old lady, but I'd give it a try!!
