I’m so glad I threw my coins in the Trevi Fountain in 2015!

Because today is the day I’m going back! It seems surreal after planning, cancelling , waiting for almost 2.5 years we finally get to go!

I’m more anxious this time for some reason. Maybe because we are taking our sons and for some odd reason I feel responsible for the whole crew, although they are grown up young men.

But, I am excited and will probably be even more so when we get going. Weather forecast looks great.

Thanks for all your help! Will check back in.

I know the feeling! We’re going to Europe this July and it is a feeling of “at last we can experience the joy of travel” once again. I never realized how much I would miss it until it was taken away, but now we’ll enjoy it even more and learn to treasure the moments.

You will have a great time!!

I’m in Rome now
The weather is gorgeous
It’s very crowded
Glad we’re not planning to visit any major sights, been here a few times and plan to just hang out in Trastevere for our last few days of trip

Welcome Back, Lulu348!!!

@ChristineH

Do you mean crowded more than previous visits (mine were all pre-pandemic) or more crowded than you thought it would be during covid?
