Rome: Because We Wanted To

Rome: Because We Wanted To

Today has been amazing, but then it's Rome how can one go wrong?

We woke up at 4:30AM to be packed and in the lobby for breakfast at 5:15AM. Talk about an early start! Then we headed to the airport and boarded for Rome, Italy.

We had to wait for forty five minutes for the bus and then another half hour for the bus which was unfortunate but it could have been much worse so I can't complain to much.

We arrived at the hotel and were really impressed with it. We then quickly assembled and went to the metro to meet our tour guide.

We got off the metro, climbed the stairs and right in front of us was the Coliseum. It was amazing.

After that we walked around the area and learned the history of all the old ruins and took tons of pictures. We even saw Caesar's grave site.

My favorite part of the tour was the Trevi Fountain, but we saw many other cool things to though.

On the tour we even stopped for Gelato which is the best I have ever had in my life. Nothing can compare.
  
After the tour a group of us went for dinner where I had delicious Gnottichi     
in Italy. We explored for a bit more and then went back to the hotel.

It was such a long, but amazing day.
