We've done exceptionally well on the step-counting front over the last two days, averaging 15,000 a day. This has entailed getting up close and personal with the highways and byways of Rome, of which there are plenty. Favourite spot so far, the Spanish Steps - plenty of tourists around, of course, but still room to think of poor, doomed Keats there or thereabouts in his final feverish days. Least favourite spot by far, the Trevi Fountain. Just too many tourists, I'm afraid, which is ironic since we were there to add to the considerable number.
But we managed a cooling drink and excellent ice-cream at a nearby hostelry, so all was well in its way.
