Crossing the Tiber. From here we went to Porta Portese which is the BIG flea market on Sundays. Tons of stuff and very inexpensive. This was the only time we were accosted by anyone on this trip. As we were walking through the crowds, 3 girls came up and started putting their hands all over Clemente saying Sayonara. Not sure why they were saying goodbye to him but probably saying goodbye to his wallet if he did not slap them all off and get away quickly.
No pictures in the flea market as it was too crowded but we sure needed some lunch afterwords. We stopped for a Doner Kebap at Mondial Pizza Rosticceria. It was quite inexpensive and good.

Drinks in the Piazza. Nice afternoon
The oldest marble structure in Rome as it was built in 200 BC. It is the Temple of Portunus
Remember the movie Roman Holiday? This is the Bocca Della Verita, better known as the Mouth of Truth. It supposedly bites off the hand of those who have infidelity problems.
