[Leica] Rome in May

Good choice. You'll enjoy Rome, I'm shure. I was there in may 2004. A very
good season - nice weather, not too hot, not too many tourists. See my
modest Rome gallery here:

Super wide angle lens recommended for Vatican place and inside San Pietro
dome and San Ambrogio e San Claudio church (last pic).

And visit Luigi Crescenci (Leicatime.com) at via Salento 4-c! You'll come
home with a new smooth leather case and at least a black paint M3
with a 90/2.2 Thambar, or similar... ;-)

If you're in a restaurant and want to drink a good, but affordable red
wine, always ask for the "vino della casa" ("wine of the house") - can't
go wrong in most places.
