The Wonderful World of Wendy


Life is not a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well-preserved body, but rather to skid in broadside, thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and loudly proclaiming - WOW - what a ride!!

Our first full day in Roma (Rome)


Dec. 31, 2005 - our anniversary is today. We met our friends at 10:30 AM at the Trevi Fountain and tossed a coin, just like in Roman Holiday with Audrey Hepburn and Gregory Peck.



Another street performer, this one playing water glasses (think Miss Congeniality)



One of the most famous tea rooms/gelato shops in all of Rome. Coffee, chocolate, and caramel gelato on my chocolate-dipped cone! Pictured here are also our German friends, Karin and Werner.

Half an hour from now we leave our hotel and head for dinner at a restaurant they picked out. At midnight we will be at Piazza del Popolo, there is a park above it, Pincio, where you can see fireworks from all over the city. In an hour we will have been married for 8 years, Seattle time.

Buon Anno! Happy New Year!

Wendy
