Easter Monday is a national holiday in Italy. Everywhere you turn in Rome there are thousands of people strolling with their families. There are also thousands upon thousands of tourists in Rome, most of whom are lining up to get into St. Peter's Basilica. As has become my habit, I took photos as I walked the now familiar streets of Rome. The photo above has the Piazza Navona in the background.
The next few photos are of paintings displayed by vendors in the Piazza Navona.
The next series of photos are the stairs of St. Peter's Basilica where thousands of flowers surround the outside altar which was used by Pope Francis I for Holy Mass on Easter Sunday.
The last set of photos on this post were taken at the restaurant where I stopped for lunch and of the flower bed of a neighboring hotel.
