Hadrian's Villa

Today I spent the day about 20 miles outside of Rome to visit the ruins of the Emperor Hadrian's Villa. We struggled to get there. It took a ride on the Metro, then on a train, then a long walk, and finally a bus. The ancient villa was practically a miniature city, with temples, houses, offices, and a theater. Unfortunately my seasonal allergies were acting up and made my visit more difficult. After two hours of touring, I met a friendly dog and he posed for a photo.
