Are the fountains in P. Navona back in operation?

And on a photo blog called Rome With A View it looked as thought the Fountain of Trevi was dry, too.

We will be in Rome starting May 31 and hope very much to see them in all their glory.

Piazza Navona's Fountain of the Four Rivers is still under scaffolding - though you can peer through it in places and see the fountain fairly clearly (though in bits and pieces rather than as a whole).

In mid-March the fountain at the north end of Piazza Navona was working as was the Trevi Fountain.

Oh and the Trevi Fountain is working. If you look carefully at the Trevi photos on Rome With A View you'll see there's water in there!
