After getting up, I got dressed and walked to Campo di Fiori again for a pizza al taglio. What that means is pizza that you can walk away with instead of purchasing a larger one in a restaurant. Typically they cut it with a knife or scissors and price it based on weight. I also went over back towards the university to get my daily fix of gelato...its OK though. With all of the walking I've been doing, gelato has nothing on me. Traveling back to Trastevere was back on my list again. Sitting in the hostel was unnecessary so why not find a place in Trastevere and enjoy an authentic Roman scenery.
The massive steps in Trastevere was my choice to sit. Shade was covering the steps while I read Art & Fear for an hour or so. I needed to avoid the mid-afternoon sun somehow. Walking back was NOT an option...much too soon!
However, exhaustion settled in. I wanted my siesta...stat! I knew the buses would be crowded and taxis were out of the question. I hauled back to Termini and took a much needed nap...a nap that was at least 4 hours off and on. It wasn't the rest nap on record, but it is what it is.
Around 8pm, I went down to eat cappriccosa pizza.
The pizza consists of Prosciutto, artichokes, black olives, and hard boiled eggs. Rosa Maria and I are favored towards this classic. We must make this pizza sometime and share the love with others! After dinner, I left to re-visit the Spanish Steps. I've seen it already but after going through thousands of photos from last year, i realized I never took a photograph at night, which is what I prefer, so here's the end result.
My 50mm 1.4 continues for me to look cautiously. My next personal assignment is to photograph extensively with the 16-35 2.8L and interior spaces. Ciao ciao!
