| View from the top level of the King Victor Emmanuel II
monument at Piazza Venezia. From left to right are a bank
building, the domed church Santa Maria di Loreto (built AD 1575), and
the domed Chiesa Santissimo Nome di Maria al Foro Traiano (Church of the
Most Holy Name of Mary at the Forum of Trajan) (built AD 1736).

| In September 2010, we took a vacation to several locales
in Europe. Our last and longest stop was in Rome. These
pages have a few of the pictures I took there. Everything in Rome
has such a history that to describe the pictures fully would take a very
large book. I've put only some brief comments in the captions.
If you're further interested, I'd recommend going to a website
like http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Main_Page
and use their search engine. Another good resource for religious
subjects is http://www.sacred-destinations.com/italy/rome
.
