My cousin who is currently studying in Sheffield will be arriving on Tuesday to spend her Christmas holidays with us.
Playing host, I’m predicting a really busy week ahead bringing her around the streets of Dublin. Surprisingly a lot of shops have started their sales which got me a little excited but I’m still waiting for the big one next Saturday.
Anyway, this post is way overdue. I probably won’t have time to update next week and since I don’t know how and where to begin, let me just do a quick pictorial narration with little clips of Aidan.
This place is my favourite piazza in Rome- very lively with musicians, artists, people dressed as statues etc.
Restaurants here are really overpriced, we paid a fortune for a bowl of pasta, a basket of bread and hot chocolate! But I figured we were actually paying for the lively atmosphere and ambience so that justified the price.
Also, at the very end of Piazza Navona is a little quaint toy store selling original wooden Pinocchios. We bought one for Aidan with the Euros given by Aidan’s aunt before we left for Rome.
A video of the Piazza.
Just 5 minutes away is the Pantheon, a very ancient and well preserved building which can be visited for free.
The Pantheon is windowless and only has one entrance . Sunlight is provided by the window in the center of the dome, as below.
We also made a pit stop at the Ferrari shop in Rome and took a photo of this bike for my big bro who’s a hard core cyclist.
I was looking all over Rome for this limited edition coke and was thrilled to find one on our last day ,
And finally, let me spice up this very boring post with a video of Aidan getting flirty with an Italian waitress.
