Botanical Gardens

A much more relaxing day today; we left the apartment around mid day having had a much needed lie in and restful morning and took the metro to Lipanto. We walked passed the Castel d'Angelo and along the river to the botanical gardens, which were not easy to find the entrance to!  We had a nice picnic lunch and Cam and Clara played under a sprinkler to cool down.

We then had a stroll round the Gardens and saw the bamboo forest, the Japanese Garden and a nice fountain. 

After the gardens we crossed the river and headed towards the Pantheon 

Finally we headed towards the Trevi Fountain - it was being restored!  Clara threw her 3 coins into the temporary pool.  This is our last night in Rome: shall we return?
