Last week I went to meet a friend near Ponte Milvio and finally remembered to bring my camera.
Couples buy locks (there were three guys selling locks on the bridge) write their names, the date and then throw the key into the river. Amore.
After the success of my friend's movie "Ho Voglia Di Te" so many people started doing this, one of the lampposts started to collapsed. Now there are several reinforced steel columns for the locks.
The original bridge was built in 206 BC. In AD 312 Constantine defeated his bitter rival Maxentius.
Later as I waited for the bus, I noticed the rainbow. Bellissima.
