It's funny how a snow storm can be romantic in one city and cause people to curse in another city. How can this be I wonder, could it be the beautiful century old buildings, the parks and landscape or simply the image we have of Rome. The snow is falling all over Italy and it is simply romantic and beautiful.
The great gates of Villa Borghese in Rome in front of Piazza Flaminia
Oh my! they have not taken the tacky Xmas decorations down at Piazza San Pietro.
Taken from inside a passing car, the staircase leading to the Campidoglio with Castor and Pollux looking down from the Capitoline Hill.
Looking down Via della Conciliazione towards St-Peter which has disappeared under the snow storm.
The doorman of the Embassy of Canada to the Holy See in Rome cleaning the snow off.
As I was saying to the Holy Father this morning as he was gazing out from his apartment window down unto St-Peter's Square, we should go skiing.
on the street, where is everyone?
The beautiful cathedral of Siena under the snow.
No one at the Caffé today

I always enjoy snow; I miss it so, living here in Arizona.
