I went up to the hill a day or two after it stopped raining.
I used a zoom to get better shot of the snow top mountains in the background. Notice how the "typewriter/wedding cake building" dwarfs the others.

View of Rome from the Gianicolo Hill
Rome is built on seven hills. One of the tallest is Gianicolo. It's a great spot to see a panoramic view of the city.

Me and my hubby used to go here to, uhm, admire the view, yeah that's it.
So, first this morning I see lovely spring photos of Spain (Barcelona) and now of Roma.
I need to move.
It was 0 F this morning.
Beautiful photos!
Do they still fire off the cannon at noon up there? I miss that daily "boom" that sort of grounded the whole day. That and the bells of Santa Maria that I used to hear from my windows... I did managed to record the Santa Maria bells at 11:45 one night to get the longest run of bells, didn't occur to me to get the noon bells which would include the cannon shot as well....
Missed opportunities.
