      Last time I was in Rome the Pope came out on the balcony when we went to the Vatican apparently, I don't remember it because I was still a baby.

    I put my hand in that mouth. There wasn't a queue when we were there. If you haven't been to Pompeii you really should go. Lovely seeing places that we've been to. My son stays in Hostels when he goes abroad. He even did it when he went to New York. His 41 so you can do it at any age. We had a cold drink and roll in a cafe near the Vatican, it was really expensive. lol xx

    Hi Mr Carrington! Discovered your YT channel a few weeks ago when looking for slow cooker videos! I'm now hooked on your channel! I love thrifting, car booting, eBaying and kerbside "shopping". My home is full of second hand stuff and I can't remember the last time I bought new clothes for myself or my family. My nickname is "Second Hand Rose", like the Streisand song! I was in Rome just before lockdown and it's a great city. You brought back some wonderful memories. Really love your content and wish I'd discovered your channel years ago!

    My sister lives in Bari Italy with her husband. We went in 2008 we travelled to Rome and the got a train to Bari which took 5 hours. It was my first time abroad and my first flight, so I was too excited to sleep so I could experience my first flight. But then fell asleep on the train. But I'm gutted that I Di, because I missed seeing beautiful Italian scenery. Next time I go, hopefully within the next couple of years to see my sister, I hope to stay in Rome for a night or two before taking the train. Although you can get to Bari direct from Stansted.

    Thanks for the video brought back some wonderful memories of our visit to Rome. When my Grandson threw his coin in the fountain he managed to completely miss the water and stotted a poor tourist on the head (they weren't hurt) itwas quite funny.

    • @anni50ful
      @anni50ful Год назад

      Haha so funny,it's thing like that you remember and look back on,we were in Tenerife and on the table next to us were four very large Germans eating massive ice creams,suddenly the huge parasol they were under clicked and closed engulfing all four of them ,there was uproar in the restaurant,the poor waiters try to free them ,we were all in hysterics,when they emerged they were covered in ice cream which had us all laughing hysterically again, they were last seen running from the restaurant to find a police man 😂 hilarious ! x

    I went to Rome for a few days with a friend a few years ago. We had no expectations but were absolutely blown away. There was something of interest around every corner and everything was walking distance. Our hotel was a terrific find. Very small but perfectly positioned on a quiet street but only a two minute walk from the Trevi fountain and also close to an ice cream shop that we later found out is something of a foodie destination.

      You are right.
      I'm from Rome and it's true: we take all for granted.
      My university faced the Colosseum, so for me that was just a "normal" view outside the window and time to time I had to remind myself what an amazing thing I was seeing 😅

    Thank you for taking us with you. My favourite part - it was all brilliant. I do love that you almost always find a way to see the same thing (almost) for free. I also really like that you touched one of the ancient walls. I always love to do that to old buildings, perhaps thinking I can ‘feel’ who’s gone before. Always love your videos. Who took care of the kittens? 🥰

    I absolutely loved this-thank you for showing us Rome. That angle of the Spanish steps reminded me of the scene from The Talented Mr. Ripley. And then one of the side streets you were on-one of the first ones you talked about-looked like a scene from Under the Tuscan Sun when Diane Lane’s character goes to Rome and she meets Luciano ❤.
