Notes
Original Toronto Star caption: Best thing in life are free as this priceless view of Rome's Castel Sant' Angelo; reflected in a rain pool; shows. But the cost of getting to the great sight of the world and eating and sleeping once you arrive have zoomed up in price like the grocery bill. There are ways up controlling these costs as travel editor Gerry Hall points out in the accompanying hints. The castle was originally built by the Emperor Hadrian as an imperial tomb.
