Elma
I made a second trip to Italy in February 2011. It was also sponsored by the Wisconsin Alumni Association. “If you want to be a Badger, just come along with me…” It was a week in Rome with side trips to other points of interest.
Our hotel was within walking distance of the Spanish Steps. The first afternoon, before everyone had checked in, I walked over to see it. This was when sitting on the Steps was still permitted, and even though it was February and damn cold, I sat on the steps and ate my gelato.
