23rd September
A late start today as it had been such a late night and we
knew that we had an early start tomorrow.
Caught an 881 into town and then walked to Piazza Navona where 2 coffees
cost €14 (they do come with a tiny literally bite-sized cookie) service tax was
14%!!! Our mistake was not going for
the orange plastic chairs!
We saw the Pantheon and
wandered through many picturesque and busy streets – I am still amazed at how
traffic negotiates the narrow streets!
We had lunch in Papas located in a narrow street near via dei
Portoghesi. Pasta, a couple of beers and
a bottle of water. We were not rushed
and felt comfortable sitting drinking our beer and reading our books. Walked back to the 881 terminus and caught
the bus back to the hotel for packing!
I am still surprised at
how many of the toilets are unisex (and seatless); it was strange last night queuing
for the loo at the restaurant only to find that Marco was in before me! Even the hotel loo is the same – but at least
those had seats!
Another 28 degree plus day again today!
