Isn't it Sandra? I believe it's built in the style of Italian Renaissance Architecture - another reason I want to visit Italy.

Anywhere at all would be nice! :o) I wish Cameras had been digital when we went..we borrowed a friend's Video camera,that only showed black and white when filming,and weighed a ton ! How my OH managed was a miracle, as trying to look where he was going was no mean feat ! Lol..Happy days ! Lol.

Oh yeh Sandra - Sounds like GOOD TIMES!! I'd really love to see the Colosseum, especially after reading "Daisy Miller" an 1878 novella by Henry James. It portrays the courtship of the beautiful American girl Daisy Miller by Winterbourne, a sophisticated compatriot of hers. His pursuit of her is hampered by her own flirtatiousness, which is frowned upon by the other expatriates when they meet in Switzerland and Italy. If you want a real "page turner" this is it..
