After a magnificient dinner at il Chianti - my most favorite restaurant in Rome - we were out to do what all must do when in Rome. Toss two coins a piece in the Trevi Fountain.Its never hard to find fountain Trevi. While small in size of the area it takes up, the splashing water and screams of people give it enough boisterousness to rival any waterpark. While no one is technically in the fountain, the number of people packed into this tight space would compete with attendance records at Blizzard Beach on any given night.
The myth behind Trevi, is that you are allowed two wishes on any given trip to Rome. But it will only come true if your first wish is to return to Rome. (quite a marketing stunt, eh?)
We all took our turns throwing our pennies into the fountain...
Who knows if our coins tossed will equal wishes granted. Should life ever call for another flight that lands in Fiumincino we will know, won't we?
