Owner and i are currently in a short break in Rome, Italy. It is a city we have been lucky enough to visit a few times before so there is no pressure to 'do the sights', as they have all been previously seen. That said, who can resist a return visit to cross the Tiber to the Forum, the Colosseum, the Pantheon, Spanish Steps or the grounds of the Villa Borghese? No, not us either.
Owner has some health issues which are causing us both concern, so it has been nice to get away and just wander around Rome at our leisure. We had planned to head out to Ostia Antica today to see more Roman ruins but there is a 24 hour transport strike and so that particular plan has been postponed until tomorrow.
All there has been to do, therefore, is to enjoy the simple pleasures of pizza, pasta, beer, people watching, sightseeing, shopping, avoiding being run over - mostly successfully, i experienced the mild indignity of managing to be run over by a small hand-pulled cart, oh and making the occasional appearance in a dress or skirt.
The latter were fun to do although one look at the Roman cobbled streets was enough for Owner to forbid the wearing of the stripper heels i had brought along and to instead insist on the far more sensible option of my wearing trainers. Anyway, here i am in the backstreets of the Trastevere district:
And then the next day in the grounds of the Villa Borghese, during which my knickers ended up down around my knees - luckily for me the police car did not pass by at exactly that moment but about 30 seconds later, just as i was putting my jeans back on!

In the meantime, here are a few photos of the eternal city

The place we are staying in also has a little outdoor space, perfect for naked dancing in
We still have just under two days left before we head back home to London.
