[14] Home Sweet Home

Photo of the Vittorio Emanuele II Monument in Rome. Many people believe it's a huge eyesore, but you can see cool things from in (like large groups of tourists in orange hats. Yes, indeed).

Since I am safely back in Canada, and finally settled at home, I thought, to finish up this blog, I would upload photos from the last leg of my journey...

1. Fountain of Trevi, Rome (near sunset); 2. Unused entrance to the Musei Vaticani (I secretly think that is where the Pope Mobile ejects from); 3. Dome of St. Peter's Basilica at the Vatican. 4. Foot of the Colossus from the Musei Capitolini; 5. Passage way overarching entrance to Musei Capitolini from Forum Romanum; 6. Interior courtyard of one of Rome's many museums (my favourite, it was nearly empty!); 7. Church in Venice. From this photo you might get the impression the Venice was not full of tourists, don't be fooled, they are just afraid of the rain;8. Gondoliers in Venice; 9. Pigeons in Venice (almost as populous as gondoliers, but better well fed).
