Aaron from Meanwhile is heading over here next week - which means we should be getting a series of incredible, and often unusual, photographs of the Eternal City. He's been using an amazing site as his inspiration in planning this trip: Rome in the Footsteps of a 18th Century Traveller (a click on the Guida di Roma at the left will take your there.) The site is obviously a work of love for Roberto Piperno and as Aaron mentioned also the work of a life time. I wasn't familiar with it until I clicked on the link in Aaron's post and I spent a fascinating and fascinated hour or so paging through it. It's been added to my favorites and the link being sent to any of our friends who are coming to visit.Thanks Aaron and we've ordered sunny and mild weather for next week - its sunny and heading for 15c here today - but bring a sweater, coat, gloves, a scarf and umbrella just in case.

There was a YouTube video up called "Baroque Back Mountain" where someone put images from the film set to some lovely Bach music. Can't seem to find it now but I thought it terribly clever.
Have fun with your friend!

No way! The Hat beat me to it, although I haven't seen the video. Yet! Actually I was goign to say Baroque Back Blogging.
Baroque Obama in '08!..yeah..that was lame.
But the image it gives me of Obama in a powdered wig and a velvet coat is pretty funny!
