My camera has been attached to my right hand this entire trip, my finger ever at the ready. I like to think of it a my Go-Go-Gadget Camera. But, sometimes, it’s nice not to live life through the lens. Sometimes, you just have to experience it with both eyes open, instead of one in the viewfinder.
So, on Saturday, even though I had my camera, I let it rest at my side, at least for a little, to experience the Rome that you can’t see in travel books. A few members of the group and I decided to check out the Gay Pride festival. It’s one of those things that you just happen upon, like being in Rome during one of the only days of the year that the presidential gardens are open, or missing your ferry and having to ride in a tiny boat back to Capri as the sun sets over the Mediterranean. Timing is everything, but spontaneity isn’t far behind. And luck probably has a lot to do with it.
Thank you for sharing your photos.
