Travel Diary: Days in Rome, Part 2

Day 3

We started this day with a visit at the Forum Romanum, right next to the Colosseum.

The sky was blue, but is was super windy. After a while we really got tired from walking around, also the ground was quite sandy and the wind blew it right in our faces.

After Forum Romanum we caught a tram that brought us to the Trastevere district. We were in search for a place to have lunch and I was searching for two bookshops I had heard of before.

A typical italian restaurant.

After a while we found "Almost Corner Bookshop". 

I bought "A time in Rome" by Elizabeth Bowen and "My Cousin Rachel" by Daphne du Maurier here.

This shop was quite cute, filled with books and cards.

The streets in Trastevere are filled with cute little shops, restaurants and ice cream parlors. 

At "Fior di Luna" we made a quick stop for some ice cream ( :

Back in the city we need some rest and visited a café somewhere in Rome. I had some coffee and already started reading in my new book.

On day 4, which was also our last day, we had breakfast and then packed all of our stuff. We brought it to a locker at Termini station and from there we took a metro to the Vatican. This must be the main attraction in Rome, cause it was super full. 

From the Vatican we walked to the Castel Sant'Angelo and enjoyed the sun. We also had some lunch in this district and tried a highly recommended ice cream parlor before driving to the airport.
