Rome: Day Three: The Museum isn't Built Yet




Sadly this neighborhood pub was closed.
Dennis was warned by machine gun toting guards not to photograph this lovely building, but he had already snapped the shot.










Graffiti was everywhere in Rome, especially on the subway
On Saturday morning we set off to find the Modern Art Museum, only to find it was still under construction, which our trusty guide book failed to mention. Still, we got to stroll through a residential neighborhood that was not filled with sightseers. Devon was pleased to see Roman mothers with young children, which we had not seen in the tourist parts of town. Before getting back on the Metro and heading for the Spanish Steps, we enjoyed browsing through an upscale furniture store filled with ultra modern furnishings.
