Ooops, forgot to answer your question. Tombstone is an actual town in Arizona known for it's somewhat violent gunfighting history. A very small portion of it is touristy and not at all organized like Willamsburg.
Randy~ I'm happy you like it. If you come to Rome and visit this part of town, you'll see that much of its (even more modern) buildings are painted this ancient hue of terracotta.

T.Becque~ As I've mentioned to Loree, there may just be something coming up that could grant that wish...
Petrea~ Rome is a very "walkable" city, despite its many up&down hills, cobblestones and irrational sidewalks. This area is pedestrians only, so much better!
Wow, it's amazing how a little detail like that can stick in the memory. And this scene brings back memories. We used to live just across the river, in piazza san Paolo alla Regola (perhaps you know it?) and whenever we went to Trastevere, we'd cross the ponte Sisto, pass the piazza Trilussa and take one of the side streets, usually the vicolo del Bologna or vicolo del Cinque, heading towards piazza Santa Maria del Trastevere. Inevitably we'd pass this little gem on the way...
I'd totally forgotten about it until I saw this photo. Thanks for the memory!

All the food blogging has kept me distracted from work (or the lack of) issues. I'm much better now!!!

ReplyDeleteI'm happy this was a stroll down memory lane. Wow, you lived in a beautiful part of town, what I'd give to be that lucky!
