Rome was very grand - saw the usual: trevi fountain, collasseum, spanish steps and sistine chapel - but highlights for me were papyrus room at the Vatican Museum and Burri exhibition at the Scuderie del Quirinale ( luckily it opened yesterday which meant we were able to visit before flying home). Still prefer Florence - Rome is monumental but Florence much more intimate, somehow look at Rome but feel a part of Florence. Off to Perpignan tomorrow for a week to meet friends who we would have seen getting married this weekend in Cancun, (cancelled because of hurricane).
