So it turns out bopping around Italy with my girl is more appealing than stopping to tap out one-finger posts on a tablet when we have wifi. So much to see, so much to eat, so many steps to tally. Gotta rest sometime. However:
We spent a few days in Rome under wonderful blazing sun and mid 20s temperatures. Stayed in a charming residential neighborhood and saw a lot of the classics: Spanish Steps, Trevi Fountain, Pantheon, and some quieter places too. Liked this 'look what's down at the end of the street' shot.

Then we jumped on one of these Frecciarossa high-speed trains and blitzed off to Venice at 300 kph.
