Fountains & Churches

Today we walked over nine miles and saw a lot of things.  It was beautiful blue sky all morning but this afternoon it poured with rain.  I even bought Dorothy an umbrella!  Besides the fountains and churches, there are a lot of narrow streets filled with scooters.

The Mausoleum of Hadrian, erected between 134 and 139 AD, is usually known as Castel Sant' Angelo (English: Castle of the Holy Angel), is a towering cylindrical building in Parco Adriano, Rome, Italy. It was initially commissioned by the Roman Emperor Hadrian as a mausoleum for himself and his family. The building was later used by the popes as a fortress and castle, and is now a museum. The Castel was once the tallest building in Rome.
