Top of a building view of Rome, Forum, Van Gogh art exhibit

Well, another busy busy day.  It's 9:46 PM and we just walked in from a great dinner at "Mimi & Coco's".  I'll try to post.

Rome from the top of Vittorio Emmanuel Monument (I made some lovely videos for you!!)
Forum from the top of the monument
Lunch at a cafe on a midway level...outside and overlooking the city.

A great art exhibit with tons of Van Goghs...no photos...didn't even sneak one.
Dinner at Mimi and Coco's (yummy chocolate brownies for desert).  See the Mimi and Coco's post for the videos and photos.

  2. Just found out some interesting information about the Design of the Arc de Triomphe in Paris.

    The design of the arch by Jean Chalgrin is based on the Arch of Titus in Rome. The Arc de Triomphe is much higher (50m versus 15m), but it has exactly the same proportions.
