How do we conquer Europe from the sea - part 23

Cruise the Mediterranean from Odessa to Barcelona and back (extension, ch.23) In general, the same day in the Italian capital, even from photographs it is difficult to recall and repair history of our movement in the city. But does it matter? The important thing - in Rome, I "marked". And that's it.
