Rom's Kirchen ...
...kann man auch bei Regenwetter besuchen. Dachte ich, als ich mich um 10:00 Uhr endlich aus dem Schlafsack schälte. Eine Dusche und zwei Espresso doppio später war ich auf dem Weg zur Metro. Vorbei an der Piazza di Spagna, dem Augustus-Forum und dem Ara Pacis war das erste Ziel das Pantheon. Dort dachte ich schon, dass das heute nicht mein Tag ist - wie kann man so dumm sein, sich ausgerechnet dort nicht über eine leere Sitzbank zu wundern, sondern sich ohne genau ...
