got back from italy at about midnight last night (6am rome time) The trip overall was really awesome, though there were a few negatives.
I took about 500 pictures, so it may take me some time to figure out how to get all of them online, but i really want to organize them so that I'll be able to remember where stuff was later.
Pros of the Trip:
- I saw the pope in his pope mobile)
- I walked on the same stones as Julius Cesear
- Gelato is delicious... as is all italian food
- my cousin and i actually like each ot her
- i have now seen almost every major european art piece in the world
- i saw things that are over 2000 years old
- Free espresso cups
- seeing the necropolis under st peters and seeing st peters bones
- Marco
Cons of the Trip:
- My grandmother walks really slow
- 9 hour flights are not fun
- I got a nasty head cold in Florence
- running into Megan Turner at the pantheon
- Not speaking basically any of the language
- 6 hour time difference
i'll put up some pics later
