My Personal Amazing Race - Rome, Italy

Trevi Fountain
In Season 9, Leg 6 (original airdate: 4/12/2006) of the Amazing Race on CBS, teams travel by train to Rome, Italy and visit Trevi Fountain and the Spanish Steps. Later in the same episode, teams travel to Athens and visit the Agora.

Amazing Race returns to the Spanish Steps in Rome in Season 24, Leg 7 where the teams must count the number of steps and solve an equation to get their next clue.  In the same episode, one team (Caroline & Jennifer) completes a Speed Bump in which they pick up a typewriter outside the Pantheon.


Spanish Steps
We visited Rome in March 2004 on a one week trip to Italy.  These photos and video were taken with a 1.3 Megapixel camera (HA!) which was the latest technology at the time.
If you haven't visited Rome, it is truly an amazing city and definitely worth the trip.  Rome has everything...art, culture, history, food, wine, and coffee.  I especially loved the cappuccinos in Italy.
