  • The crypt of the capuchins is found in the Church of the Immaculate, on Via Veneto, 27. There is a small fee. There are 6 crypts lined up on one side of a narrow hall. The crypts are decorated with the bones of deceased friars. There are thousands of bones arranged along the walls and ceilings. The picture shown is from the Crypt of the Skulls. Another crypt is named Crypt of the Pelvises. Then there is the Crypt of the Leg Bones and Thigh Bones, and Crypt of the Three Skeletons. Hours are: 9-12 and 3-6, closed on Thursdays. No pictures allowed. (This picture is from a postcard)

  • Absolutely the ticket on a hot Roman day. We came across this busy stand called SORA MIRELLA just after crossing the Tiber Island, on the Trastevere side. We had been pounding the pavement all morning sightseeing the ghetto region and Tiber island. This yummy treat in a shady oasis was just what was needed.
    Most of the ice flavors were fruit based: banana, strawberry, cherry, lime, etc.

     I love your description of crossing the street! And you say you can't miss the entrance to the Villa Borghese - but guess what: We passed by a zillion times and never had a clue what it was...LOL
