Rome

Llafyks

I'm off to Rome at the weekend for a meeting. Fly in late Friday evening and out again Sunday afternoon.
If I get time on the Saturday afternoon might try to get to a few of the Rome venues; maybe Lucias' Villa (which isn't too far away from my hotel) apparently it can be booked for private hire - but not by me this time around , or perhaps the Sisto bridge.
Maybe see if I can persuade a taxi driver to speed alongside the Tiber, seem to remember that the taxi drivers in Rome like to go at a fair rate of knots!
Don't have any items of the Rome outfit so may have to wear the London stuff (JV etc).
Been a while since I've been to Rome, did all the usual tourist sites last time (Vatican, Colosseum, Forum, fountains etc) would love to see some of the Spectre sites but may be pushed for time. Meetings like this are sometimes Home; Airport; Hotel; Airport; Home.

Have a great weekend Llafyks. Rome is an amazing city. What's the name of Lucia's villa?

Would also like to visit some of the Spectre sights when I'm going to live there for four months this fall -{

It's called Villa Di Forano and its on the Via Appia Antica.
Apparently there is a Villa Sciarra closer to the centre of Rome but it's got nothing to do with the film other than perhaps giving the writers a name for the villain!

Didn't manage to get anywhere near centre of Rome; too busy in meetings unfortunately.


Went for a pizza wearing London outfit - took it all that way so was going to wear it!

Although I didn't get to see any of the Rome sites I tried some different combos as the hotel had something I don't have at home...a full length mirror
The BC trousers go well with the Moncler as well as the NPeal and the JV. They look a little creased as I'd been in meetings all day, comfortable though.
