Rome part 3

Our hotel in Rome was very close to the Vittorio Emanuele Monument, Roman Forum and Trajan’s Forum. We passed all of them every day. The Vittorio Emanuele Monument is a very large building dedicated to the first president of Italy. It’s not nearly as old as most of the famous buildings in Rome, but it was right around the corner from out hotel.

The hotel had a dining patio on the roof with great views toward St Peter’s church. It was also very close to several excellent Italian restaurants. I love Italian food and I can never seem to find a good restaurant in Hong Kong. In Minneapolis, there’s a great pizzeria near the island, across the street from Surdyk’s, and the best little Italian deli in Victory near Crystal Lake, but I haven’t found anything in Hong Kong. Our hotel in Rome was surrounded by great food.
