I arrived yesterday afternoon into the frenzied Roma Termini. My hostel is one block away from the station so it was pretty convenient. I am staying at The Beehive and this time I am in a room with four sets of bunks. After I checked in I dropped my bags and headed out to the Spanish Steps. I knew I was going in the right direction when I spotted the obelisk:
Basically, these steps are between two Baroque church towers and they make for one of Rome's most iconic sights. Shoppers hang out here after they have drained their wallets and contemplate whether they could actually afford what they just purchased and others (like myself) hang out and watch the people that have dropped too much money!
After a serious people watching session and some window shopping in the Spanish Steps area I had a delicious pizza at La Gallina Bianca.
Four cheese pizza - oh so good and those mounds you can see are hunks of blue cheese. I am enjoying the foods of Italy!!!
