Ostia

Today we visited Ostia, a seaside town Southwest of Rome. It is full of beachside bars, restaurants, and attractions - mostly boarded up for the winter season. I am told Ostia becomes completely mobbed in the summer, but it was very quiet today (however not so quiet that we couldn't track down some gelato!). I look forward to visiting again in warmer weather, when it is in full swing. Here are a few photos from the beach.

P.S. - Note that you can click on any photos in the blog to see them full size.

Ciao!

The beaches in Ostia seemed to be very dirty. I'm interested to see if they get cleaned up when the summer season comes along...
