I know I called Paris beautiful but I can't think of a better word to describe Rome, it's just so damn beautiful.  So beautiful in fact that I've decided to let it speak for itself.  Rome has a few cool things going on, like a shared bike program for example, but nothing really stood out from the other cities I visited.  Rome is old, really old, like from the Roman times kind of old. It was incredibly easy to just walk about aimlessly and stumble upon the most incredible monument designed by Michelangelo or Leonardo or some other genius named after a Ninja Turtle.  Although my images do highlight some of the major sights in the city I tried to convey the more subtle and ephemeral beauty I found in Rome.  This is my favourite kind of beauty, the kind that happens quietly for just a brief moment so that only the lucky few who are in the right place at the right time get to experience it.  I hope you enjoy these moments I thought were worth sharing.

My Run was fun and I'm happy to have shared some of it with the Fuse community.  I learnt lots and look forward to applying some of it to London in the coming years. Ryan's Run will certainly continue but this series has run its course. A la prochaine mes amis.

Nice pics. The 9th one has to be my favourite.

Picture number three really hits me. Sprawling buildings of various shapes and sizes winding around narrow streets are always my favourite.
