Schools and alleys

The water was up in the Tiber on one of my walks. It gets a lot higher, but it was just pleasant that day.


Here's my language teacher. He's an amiable Frenchman.


Here's the entrance to the Pontifical American College. It's located beside the offices for the propagation of the faith (that's what the sign is on the pink wall on the left.)


Here's the Pontifical American College itself. The complex is enormous and very peaceful. Visitors are required to be escorted at all times.


Another view of the same building.


Here's the locale of St. Luigi. It's actually a few blocks away, but a lot of construction is going on there which is ugly. You can see one of the many ubiquitous news kiosks in the background. In older central areas, the buildings in general look a lot like this. The road was blocked off by Carabinieri so I was able to get a nice photo.


A typical back street in the City Center a few blocks from the Tiber. Smaller streets exist, but they're only for pedestrian traffic and suicidal scooter fiends. Walking down streets like this is the most pleasant way to get around. No one uses them except locals unless you're in touristy areas.
