Italian forums: November 2016
http://foroitalia.blogspot.com/2016_11_01_archive.html
This blog is about the Roman Forum and Italy. Tuesday, November 29, 2016. Ostia Antica Ancient Rome's 1st port. Picture perfect in a frame. Beautiful Ostia Antica on a lovely day. Ancient Rome's 1st port is no longer a town full of merchants, sailors, and ancient Romans. It's now a large archaeological site just begging to be explored. While Pompeii is crowded and hard to maneuver about when the tours are in progress, Ostia is uncrowded. The mosaics and frescoes are Bellissimo! Care for a souvenir or two?

This blog is about the Roman Forum and Italy. Sunday, June 5, 2016. The Arch of Constantine and The Meta Sudans. This is the famous Arch of Constantine. It was erected in the early 4th Century by the Senate for Constantine's victory over Maxentius. Maxentius was the current Emperor. The victory took place at the Battle of the Milvian Bridge. Maxentius's body wound up in the Tiber River. This photo was taken from the Colosseum in Rome, Italy. Sharon M. Wolf. Italy #Italia #Rome #ruins. Sharon M. Wolf.

This blog is about the Roman Forum and Italy. Sunday, February 28, 2016. The rooftops of Rome as seen from the roof top of the Hotel Bernini Bristol in Piazza Barberini. I love this view, it's from their famous roof top terrace. It was my first time in Rome. After a delicious dinner at the roof top restaurant, I headed out to explore. I had already spent the afternoon exploring when I arrived. (Jetlag in Rome? Back to the Bernini, though. I enjoyed my four day stay and the food there. Sharon M. Wolf.

This blog is about the Roman Forum and Italy. Thursday, December 10, 2015. Torna a Surriento is a beautiful Italian song. It translates in English to Return to Sorrento. I have heard the song and seen the beauty of Sorrento. It does make you want to return. It's the perfect place for La Passeggiata, which is what they call an evening stroll in Italy. Have you booked your flight yet? Sharon M. Wolf. Links to this post. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Google Website Translator Gadget. Sharon M. Wolf. My blogs ...

Italian forums: Ostia Antica Mosaic
http://foroitalia.blogspot.com/2016/10/ostia-antica-mosaic.html
This blog is about the Roman Forum and Italy. Saturday, October 22, 2016. This is a mosaic in Ostia Antica, the first Port of Ancient Rome, in Italy. Some say it's a mosaic of the second port of ancient Rome: Portus. I took an amazing course on Portus. The lighthouse, pictured above, was modeled after the great Alexandria Lighthouse in Egypt. The lighthouse sat in an artificial harbor. It was built on Caligula's ship that transported an obelisk to Circus Maximus. Sharon M. Wolf. Sharon M. Wolf.
