As the day ended on our first day (with the sun lighting up the Colosseum), so our second day began (with the sun peering over the top).
The astute reader might notice that a day doesn’t actually begin with the sun peering over the top of anything like that. It was, in fact, noon when our day began, a detail that we have discussed already.
In any event, this was our day in ancient Rome. Of course, we spent a long time at the Colosseum, where evidently we had a fun time.
We meandered thru the valley that was the Roman forums
and across Campo de Fiori, passing under the stern gaze of Giordano Bruno.
And we sat under the portico of the Pantheon and then wandered inside where I literally wept.
And finally at day’s end, we found ourselves on the Spanish Steps.
It had been a very good day.
