Below, some of the older city wall entrances from the Esquiline neighborhood I stayed in during my short June Rome visit, and above a lovely shaded walkway across the street from the park called Piazza Vittorio Emanuele II.

OK, so I went for this fabulous dawn / sunrise walk in Rome last week, with various buildings framing the setting moon wonderfully as the sky lightened. Couldn’t help myself, just kept taking photos. Yes, you’ll see the moon in each of the photos below, if you look closely enough or tap and enlarge. Don’t hate me if I’ve again gone overboard on this whole beauty thing 🙂

…in this case, the eternal city staying very much contemporary 🙂

As with the Barcelona photos I’ve been showing you: couple days of work from Sunday to Wednesday last week, but one does have evenings and mornings for walks and enjoying wonders of the world :-). Hadn’t been to Rome since, wait for it, May 1981. Yikes.

Our plane flew over Lago di Brecciano shortly before landing at Rome’s Fiumicino airport on Sunday afternoon. Another short work trip in a lovely and ancient city near the Mediterranean.
