These first few days of summer have been wonderfully relaxing.  I've spent my time baking (delicious double chocolate hazelnut cookies, anyone?), walking Huck and running errands.  I found a cooking channel this morning... it is terribly entertaining.  That's where this came from: “I don’t do that for cause or effect or applause, it just happens to be the right way”--The Galloping Gourmet.
Anyway, here is the first post (of two) of photos from Churches.

We were lucky enough to see a part of wedding in Rome

Many of the churches have skull sculptures.. I thought it was a bit strange

Used to light candles

If you look closely, you will see the cross behind the lock

I realized only doing five pictures a day will take too long.  So I'm going to post as many as I feel like per day.  Haha, anyway here are more outdoor images.  I believe all of these are somewhere near Trastevere.

I finally organized all of my photos from the trip (thanks, insomnia).  I have decided to slowly post all of my favorite artsy/non-people images on the blog.  Since there are so many, I placed them in eight different categories (The Great Outdoors, Churches, Sky, People & Animals, Things, Water, Sunset, and Night) and will post five pictures each day until they are gone.  And sorry for the slightly obnoxious watermark (name on the images), I may end up entering some of these in contests so I wanted to protect them.  I hope you enjoy!
