Mediterranean

A NIGHT TOUR I would walk off the extra calories on a night-time tour of Rome’s great attractions. Lit by the moon, the stars and street lamps, Piazza Campo de Fiori, the Colosseum, the Pantheon, and the Trevi Fountain glow in a golden hue. CONQUER THE MORNING Taking advantage of being an early riser, I’d head over to the world’s smallest state, Vatican City, to walk St. Peter’s Square and see the treasures of the Vatican Museum and the glorious ceiling artwork of Michelangelo in the Sistine Chapel without the crowds. BEFORE BOARDING MY SHIP No one can deny the glamour and style of Italian fashion, especially Rome’s designer boutiques and palatial flagship stores. Before embarking on my voyage, I’d stop at Via dei Condotti and Via Borgognona, near the foot of the Spanish Steps, to shop for a dress to wear to dinner at Prime 7 later that evening.
