ROMA, bella Roma!!
In 1996 ,
I was in Roma for twenty four hours. In 1998, I spent nearly four days
in the "Eternal City".
This hardly makes me an expert, but it sure tells me how much I love the place!!
En 1996, j'étais à Rome
pour vingt-quatre heures. En aout 1998,
j'y ai passé près de quatre jours.
Ce n'est pas ce court séjour qui me rend expert en la "Ville Eternelle",
mais maintenant, je sais comme je l'aime!!

 Church della Maddalena, in Trastevere?? Or Campo dei Fiori? L'église della Maddalena à Trastavere?? Ou Campo dei Fiori? |
 Piazza Navona Une des statues de la Fontaines des Quatres Rivières, de Bernini. One of the statue of the Fountain of the Four Rivers, by Bernini. |
la statue de Giordano Bruno, philosophe humaniste envoyé au bucher par l'Eglise en 1600. Un autre crime catholique qui appelle une autre petite repentance de Jean Polski, non ?? Statue of Giordano Bruno, humanist philosopher burnt at the stake in 1600. Another catholic crime begging for another little repentance, don't you think, John Polski ?? |
Campo
de' Fiori
 |
San Pietro, la nef et les colonnes de Bernini! San Pietro, the nave and Bernini's columns! |
 |
 Une rue de Campo de' Fiori, ou la belle Rosella m'avait amené! A street in Campo de' Fiori, |
Second visit to this ancient courtyard! |
|
Bella Rosella on the phone in Campo de' Fiori! |
 Circus Maximus |
 Can't quite remember what this is called! I guess I had my mind on something else (hint: she's on the right)! OK, now she told me: we were in Gianicolo! J'oubli le nom de cet endroit. Je devais avoir l'esprit ailleurs
(indice: à droite!!). |
Same place, same memory loss, same reason :-)) It is in fact the Acqua Paola Fountain in Gianicolo! |
 Le Colisée. The Colosseum |
Without my Roman guide, how can I remember this cloister's
name? On the Aventino, one of the seven hills of Rome! |
|
Ah, here is my guide again! Quick, let's ask her
where we are!! |
