I enjoyed my time there, just didn't think overly much of the city itself. Still it came after Amsterdam, The Hague, Brussels, Paris and Barcelona, so I was possibly a bit "over" Cities entirely after that... :shudderFunnily enough I enjoyed Rome. Although my attention was somewhat fluid due to the fact that the carabinieri and customs officers were very attractive women - so my first impressions were pretty good.
Agreed. Though I think my second visit will be a long time off, and possibly due to "other" factors (ie: "she who must be obeyed"As long as you have no problems with bad service, overpriced meals and sightseeing tickets as well as the highest number of tourist traps I have ever experienced than Rome is indeed a very nice city.
No seriously I like this city enough that I visited it a second time.
) than an overwhelming desire to return there...True, though I will be back in Europe in April / May this year...I expect that your flight to Rome is also a little bit more expensive than my one.
You may live in a sunshine country but everything else is just far far away.
:Ahhhh.... the four floors, been there done that. We have covered some of the same ground old faithfull. First time I went there in 02 it was hard to find a place that sold Bundy rum, went there again in 06 and there was an Australian bar on the second or third floor. Even had Lee Kernaghan on the juke box!!!!hey waylander, if you havnt already been to Singapore and returned, check out the "four floors of W....s" just for an eye opener!
on another note, the war cemetary is also an eyeopener
