yesterday morning we took a train into rome, and walked (mostly) to our hotel from the train station. kameron thought he had booked a hotel near the center of rome, but it turned out that it was actually about as far away from the center as you could get. we were close to the vatican city though, so it was nice to be able to find our hotel and do the vatican city yesterday, and then rest up for our HUGE day today. we left our hotel at about 10 and took the subway into the center. we got out and about around 11, and walked straight until 7 pm! we saw so many amazing things, like the pantheon and the roman forum, and of course, the colosseum. we actually got to go in to the roman forum and walk around, which i think kameron loved :) i have to admit that i am pretty impressed with his navigating skills-we had no idea where the hotel was yesterday (he got us almost all the way there walking), and today he got us pretty much everywhere we wanted to go without really getting lost. so good job babe :)
i would write more about that, but im exhausted, so it will have to wait!
next week we have no class on tuesday-it's an italian holiday. then on saturday we are going to venice for the day and on a private gondola ride (!!!) (and my lovely little bro turns 8)...other than that im not sure what we've got coming, so stay tuned ;)
love love love,
emily
