Rome - check

Well, I think I've seen it all. I got here less than 48 hours ago, and I think I have a pretty good grasp of Rome. And I've got the sunburn and sore feet/legs to prove it. I'll have to take some pictures of the burn later, it's pretty impressive, but hopefully not too painful. Sleep will be the test.

Speaking of pictures, I'm sad to say that I can't get any online from here, so that'll just have to wait till I get home. And also speaking of pictures, I've got about 450 already!!!! Holy moly! I may have to go through them and purge some, and I'm actually getting worried about running out of space on my 1Gb card! I never thought that would happen.

Without being able to post pictures, I don't think I'll tell you too much about what I saw/did in the last couple days, otherwise I'll just be repeating myself when I post with pics. Let me just say that I think the Parthenon, the Colosseum, and the Keyhole were my highlights so far. We'll see what Florence or Venice have in the way of competition.

As my time in Rome comes to a close, I'm happy to say that I've got a relaxed evening planned. I'm going to dinner with some people I met at the hostel and their Italian friend, and then probably come back and read and listen to music and get bed early so that I can get up early to get my train to Florence! I'll get there around 1pm, and Katie should arrive at 2pm, which will be awesome! It's been fun here on my own, but I'll be glad to have some company.

This is probably the last time I'll be able to post before getting back to Stirling on Tuesday, so I'll just end with a big "I love you all."

Northern Italy, here I come!

Sono felice che stiate avendo così buon tempo. Queste saranno memorie per un corso della vita! Inoltre state godendo un certo buon vino italiano?

I am so anxious to see your pics. I guess spending so much time in Scotland makes your skin pretty sensitive to the sun, huh? Well, keep having fun, enjoy northern Italy.
