If You Want The View, You're Going To Pay For It. . .But It's Worth It!

When we got to Piazza Quirinal, looked at the obelisk (didn't get a picture worth posting), looked at the president's palace, we then weren't sure what to do.  Maria looked at her phone and said we should go to the Trevi Fountain rooftop bar, so we did.

Don't say I didn't warn you, but the prices are unreal.  Is it worth it to sit on a rooftop, have an ungodly overpriced drink, and look at all the people milling around the Trevi Fountain.  

Yes, yes it is.

We started in the third of four rows of tiny tables and tiny seats.  As tables opened in front of us, we moved up, eventually to the front row.  It's not a direct view of the whole fountain, but it is fun to look down on the fountain that we could see.  Like most of the customers there who looked at the bar menu, we had one drink and left.  Still, a pretty good place to sit and relax.

Took this full sunlight view of Trevi
Fountain another day, but forgot to post it.
