Holiday in Rome, May 2004

Unforgettable memoirs from "our Roman Holiday" in the Eternal City and the perennial capital of Italy and the Roman Empire-the fountainhead of the Western Civilization. There is no city on earth with the vivacity, the exuberance and the grandeur of Rome and no people anywhere who live their "La Dolce Vita" like the "Romans of the present day"!
