I have not been in Rome...I never visited at night. I have not been in Rome since 1971 - I do not even know if it was open at night back then, but I wish I had known. I do recall that it was so incredibly hot that as I walked along on my way to the Colosseum, the asphalt on the street felt soft beneath my feet, and the heat came right through my shoes. I was quite familiar with hot weather having spent many summers in Palm Springs, but Rome in August was an altogether different kind of heat, an oppressive enervating sort of creature. Thanks for this one. I am sure I will return to Rome some day, and it will b a nighttime retur nto the Colosseum for me,AdriBarrhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03251939060270872249noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-970606443593657636.post-37694630630517926002014-04-30T17:24:19.665+02:002014-04-30T17:24:19.665+02:00Thanks so much Gillian!

I never seem to make the connection to do that (just like looking at pretty pictures I guess!). I'm headed to Rome and the Amalfi Coast with my family in early June, and after reading bits and pieces of your blog, I'm even more excited! Do you have a favorite city along the AC to stay in?
