This post is really just an excuse to show you all some pretty pictures.
The Academy hosted a Welcome reception tonight (What?! Two-and-a-half weeks in? Yes.) at the
Villa Aurelia. It is a

Lovely fountain, complete with lily pads |

Yet another amazing fountain. The water drips from the top of the arch |

Sunset and dusk. We saw bats fluttering amongst the trees |

The lighting at dusk is gorgeous |
