Today we arrived in Rome after a pretty early train from Florence, we pretty much agreed straight away that Rome was a better option. We headed to the old station and bantered into the longest queue yet, there were some really weird people in there, and a couple of dogs too, wtf.
Eventually we got on our high-speed to Rome, I was sitting opposite a small child for the second time on this triop and honestly they need to stop stepping on my legs its far too annoying, like honestly, what the hell are they playing at.
We arrived in Rome at like 2pm and bantered to our extremely funny hostel. I am sitting in hgere right now, but basically what you enter is a laundrette, which has a table in the middle, they check you in, give you a map and show you a logical route for you to take around Rome, then they take you across the street to an apartment building to show you your room.
We basically then headed out on our first walk, we saw all 4 fountains, a couple of Piazzas and the outside of the Pantheon. Rome was hot, like 35 degrees as usual so we were dying, but we were presently surprised that the city was serviced by free water fountains which we basically dominated.
Later we headed back to the hostel, ate some pizza and stuff, and then two of us headed out again at around 10pm, me and Col just walked the streets aiming to see the city at night. Many of the sights including the "monument to the forgotten soldier" were bathed in white light. The Colosseum was of course epic as usual, and the whole place was buzzing...
Banter really. +1 Rome.
