Rome- Day 3- Part 1

On the third day of Rome, we spent the day mostly catching up on things that we wanted to see. Things that did not take up that much time. Most of it was you walk to it, look at it, and go to the next place. These pictures are just of that. We did end up going into come cathedrals, so I will post some pictures of those in another post. 
The first picture is of us inside one of the churches. The church that is located on top of the Spanish Steps. The next few pictures are around the Spanish Steps. After we saw the Spanish Steps, we went to the Trevi Fountain. This fountain was HUGE, and absolutely gorgeous. These pictures do not do it any justice. It was way more than I was expecting plus even more. We threw us each a lucky penny into the fountain (even though the saying is it takes 3 wishes) and went on about our business. There was a very sweet old man that took a picture of the two of us in front of it. I shared that one with you guys, too.
After that, while walking around to our next destination (which is where we start getting into all the churches), we noticed an awesome wood store where everything is made. They must be big Pinocchio fans because (as you can see in the picture) they were everyone... big and small. Of course, Mr. Man had to pose with one of them that they had. They even had large wood motorcycles, bikes, and ponies. I love toys like that!!
We did grab lunch between here and the churches. I forgot to take pictures of the food we ate, but here is Mr. Man with his cheesy smile and cheesy pizza! The other two pictures are people that were in the different piazzas in Rome as we were walking through them.
I am sorry this post is all over the place, but today is Mr. Man's birthday so I am trying to make this as quick as possible. I hope you enjoy the pictures.
