Italy trip - Rome (part 2 of 2)

The second half of Rome trip, we went to places such as the Spanish Steps, Pantheon, Piazza Navona, Tiberina island, Mercati Traianei and Santa Maria Maggiore.


At the Spanish Steps


This got its name because of the Spanish Embassy next to it.


At the Ferrari shop!



I was so excited when I saw the Ferrari shop! Think Kimi Raikkonen! hee.. so we happily went in and spent i think close to 45min trying on Tues, and deciding to spend that € on polo t-shirts and other souvenirs. All 3 of us bought something in the end. Amounting to a total of €175.

Anyways, i had quite abit of disappointment on 5 May when I was shopping around at the new Changi Airpot T3. Coz never did i expect that I'll see a Ferrari shop in Singapore!! Argh.... Luckily they were not selling the visor which i bought for €25!

Last lunch at our favourite restaurant - pizzas this time! But i still prefer the spaghetti at the restaurant.


Inside the Mercati Traianei





Overall, this had been a good and safe trip, with good food. Roman architecture is simply fantastic, a show of their greatness.

Singapore update is up next! :)
