Night and Day

Several years ago. I was staying in a convent guest house in Rome, (very cheap!), and from my bedroom window I had this view of the Vatican.

Two photos, from exactly the same viewpoint, one taken during the day and the other at night.

Do you have any Day and Night photos of the same place?

It was a city break with Voyages Jules Verne. You stayed in this convent, with a basic breakfast. Evening meals were taken across the road in a monastery, very cheaply.
The holiday included guided tours of Rome from various aspects..... Ancient Rome, Vatican/Sistine Chapel, and more modern Rome.

Excellent value. If they still do that holiday, I can really recommend it. It was called " In the Company of Angels".

I've just looked Pyx, they do still do the holiday but even though it's very good value for money right now as my husband lost his job recently I don't have £800. Now if my husband finds a job I really wouldn't mind doing that trip, it sounds absolutely wonderful. I'd like to see some more pictures if you have any of that trip.
