Thankful
... here in Rome, and wow! Hotwire you did right by me for this hotel! I am in a 30 room villa with beautiful hardwood floors, marble bathroom and even FLUFFY blanket on the bed. Now for anyone who knows me, you know that I adore fluffy blankets.... This just about made me jump for joy!

Cats, Campo dei Fiori, and the Jewish Ghetto
... we made our way across the street to the caffe where we had dinner last night for hot chocolate and caffe macchiato. Fortified, it was back across the street to visit the cats. And what a lot of cats there are! About 200 at any one time, according to the volunteer I spoke with, most of them dumped by owners who no longer want them.
