I need to learn Italian

This was my 3rd trip to Italy and the first with a digital camera. I unfortunately didn't spend much time trying to get really great photos but at least I got some snapshots of places I visited. I will have to go back!

One thing that was interesting being in Italy with a Spaniard is that once they learned we were living in Madrid some Italians preferred to speak to us in Italian, and the truth is we understood practically everything. I was impressed though that a much higher ratio of people speak English than in non-costal Spain. As an English teacher I can say, way to go Italians!!

I loved the washed out paint look on the buildings in Rome.
Viva Italia!
