The Jewish Quarter
After havng a coffee by the Fontana delle Tartarughe, we headed into the Jewish quarter. We saw the synagogue then walked along the Teatro di Marcello and Portico di Octavia. This was a truly amazing walk — all the feels of the colosseum without the crowds.

Taking a rest before heading back to the Hotel Museum to retrieve my niece’s Garman watch then maybe to San Angelo church. We need to get groceries, then a home cooked meal to get some veggies in us!
