A September Saturday

I know, I usually meet my friends on Sunday, but since we all would have been busy on that day, we decided to anticipate our weekly meeting. With some changes...
I CYCLED from the Admiralty to Piazza Campo de' Fiori that, every day (except for Sundays) and since centuries, hosts a famous and beautiful market, which opens from
6 a.m. until 2 p.m.

There are seasonal vegetables and fruit,

stalls selling just pasta

and, close to the fountain, flowers, flowers and more flowers!

Close by, we stepped into a turkish shop, selling all kinds of Arabian lamps,




and located just next door to a Syrian restaurant.

Back on the saddle of our bikes, we reached Piazza di San Lorenzo in Lucina, where I found out that Louboutin has opened a brand new shop,

as well as Kiehl's in Via Frattina, which we entered...and exited with a bag full of wonderful creams!

Balenciaga and Niki Nika in Via Borgognona were our last stops. 

Dark clouds were gathering in the sky. The smell of coming rain was filling the air. But when the storm caught me, I was already sitting in my car, and driving home...
