My second day in Rome was VERY busy...but worth every second! First, Marge and I began our day walking up a hill to see a gorgeous view of Rome in Trevestere. Then, we headed to Campo Di Fiori to explore the market, where we got delicious caprese paninos to eat in Piazza Navona. Next, we met up with Marge's friend and visited Trevi Fountain. It was very crowded because it was a Saturday, but it was on my bucket list and was just as beautiful as in the pictures.

Once we saw Trevi fountain, my friends brought me to a very interesting place: a Cat Sanctuary. Located in Largo Argentina is the Torre Argentina Cat Sanctuary, which is a no-kill shelter for homeless cats (which Rome has plenty of). Something very unique about this place--aside from the fact that it is inhabited by various breeds of cats--is that it is also where Julius Caesar was killed. Following our visit to the Cat Sanctuary, Marge and I visited the famous Colosseum.

At about mid-afternoon, we visited a cathedral filled with chandeliers. It was so unique and beautiful. Then we climbed up some steps to Capoltini Hill and saw a view of the Roman Forum...and of course, ended the day with gelato again!
