Snapshot Rome - The dog days of summer

The heat is back.

We reached a high of 92 (f) degrees today and it's only June. Mamma mia, July and August are going to be molto caldo.

Last year I bumped into this dog taking a nap on a side street in Trastevere.

Nothing woke him up. Not the sound of people talking, cars going by or the scooters. Mr. Dog was determined to get his napping situation on.

rinaz - yesterday was so freaking hot.

shelley - grazie dio that today is a lot better. I think the cloudy cover help. Hopefully it will stay cool for the next few weeks.
