Rome in pictures  
As you may have heard, me and two other goergeous ladies, [livejournal.com profile] untitledno8 and T went to Rome last week for some culture (and other things). I'm too lazy to post details about everything we did see, however we walked a lot. Our Hotel was in the center, which was awesome. I wasn't so much in the mood to take pics this time, so I don't have that many that I personally like. But there are some sights and some impressions. Rome is VERY touristy and very packed. Oddly enough, everyone seemed to speak German. Even in the resaurants and in our hotel. Also I kept messing up italien and french. It was quite disconcerting. Anyways, it's a shame. I kept wishing that some of the historical sights were more intact. But it's so interesting how little has changed concerning how we built things. And how huge some of them were. I keep wondering what will be left of us in 2000 years time.

Also traffic in Rome in insane. Moreso than in Paris. Anyways, Rome is beautiful. We also spent a lot of time reading in various places.

Oooh, sadly we don't have so much time in Rome, but I am really looking forward to it and if my pics turn out even half as amazing as yours, I'll be happy!

OH. LOVE the pictures!! :D

And I really want to go to Rome again, too.

Thank you!!! I think the vespo one is my favorite. Maybe. I'm not quite sure.

And we still need to make a cool roadtrip. With picknick.

Rome was quite awesome. Though personally I prefer Paris and London.

Glad you guys had a great vacation.

Pictures look good enough to me.

If only there weren't so many people, I might want to go myself.
[identity profile] elli.livejournal.com on May 10th, 2011 08:57 am (UTC)
Thank you sweetie!
And the pics are fine. I'm just missing those that make me go aahhh.. you know. Where yoh learn something.

And maybe if you went at a time where less is happening... maybe in autumn...

Ohhh...pretty...

Though you might want to clean your lens/sensor? There's this speck that turns up in a few of the shots.
[identity profile] elli.livejournal.com on May 11th, 2011 08:47 am (UTC)
Hee..I noticed that too, thanks!!!

:D
