Sabbato nella citta
On Saturday, we had most of the day to explore Rome. We went in right after breakfast and wandered for a bit before meeting the group at noon. We had the option of doing a scavenger hunt through Rome, but Ashlea, Anna, Cory, Indai, Drew, Meaghan, Andrew, and I decided it would be more enjoyable to just wander. Drew, Indai, Ashlea and I headed up to St. Peter's to find Old Bridge because it's supposed to be the best gelateria in all of Rome...we ended up at Blue Ice instead, but just wandered around and observed the area until heading over to Santa Maria Maggiore where we wandered more until we needed to meet the group. We were brought back to campus in a charter but and had 45 minutes to get ready for the wine tasting.
Once we were on the bus, we thought it would be maybe half an hour until we got to eat dinner...we were quite wrong. We boarded the buses at 4:45 and stopped in two towns along the way in order to wander, and thus did not get to the restaurant until about 8. It was pretty windy getting up to the villa, so our row was a bit scared of what might happen when the wine tasting would be mixed with the ride back, but luckily, no trash back clothes were required. We were on the bus around 11:15 and managed to sleep for a little while until a group of less than sober people decided to start singing disney songs quite loudly. We couldn't decide if it was better or worse than the Backstreet Boys they sung when they were sober. We finally made it back to campus around midnight so that we could wake up today for an exciting day of homework...
Overall, it was a very eventful and enjoyable night and we got a lot of great pictures (which will be added soon).
