On Monday of the fourth week the students were scheduled to visit the market place Campo de Fiori. This is an open air farmers market in old Rome. I didn't take pictures. After lunch we sent the students on a scavenger hunt through Piazza Navone and Piazza della Rotunda. While they were on the scavenger hunt, Danilo and I got a fruit smoothie and sat and watched the tourists. The piazza is also full of artists, and so we window shopped for art. I am going to wait till my wife comes before I attempt to buy any art work. But, Piazza Navone looks like a great place to start. The picture of the cafes is from there. The other pictures are from Piazza del Popolo which I visited alone after the scavenger hunt. This is the northern entrance or gate to the city. the piazza is huge and I could climb the stairs to the overlook over the piazza.
