Alright, so I have to write this outside to get internet, and it's night-time, and there are giant mosquitoes, AND THE WHOLE SITUATION IS FREAKING ME OUT. YOU HAVE NO IDEA HOW MUCH I HAVE SACRIFICED TO WRITE. IN. THE. BLOG.
Well, here I am, sorry I didn't post yesterday. Or...the day before. We had...internet...."issues," which is why I am writing this outside in the dark right now.
Well, anyways.
We were in Sanremo, Italy two days ago. It was just a little "pit stop" so we didn't have to drive all the way from Barcelona to Rome.
Well, guess what we had for dinner in Sanremo? PASTA AND BREAD. SO ITALIAN.
Well, Sanremo was fun and all, but what I realllly wanna write about tonight is Rome.
Anyways, yes, I am in Rome today. We toured all around the place, seeing things such as the Sistine Chapel, the Colosseum, the Trevi fountain, and the famous "Basilica of Saint Peter."
I took lotsa pics, but I forgot Mr. Puffin back at the house, so he unfortunately couldn't be with us today.
Ooh! Guess what we had for dinner in Rome??
PIZZA AND PASTA!
SO
ITALIAN
I'M
GONNA
DIE!!!

It was tasty.
We walked a ton on a guided tour today, which was really amusing, considering how many people have British accents here.
NOW FOR THE PICTURES.
Pizza PIZZAZ
Nina and I in Vatican City.
A famous sculpture of some sort.
A museum.
Well, that's all folks!

I love that you are in Rome! Did you think of Lizzie McGuire at the Trevi Fountain? I always do. Hahaha. Did you see the Pope? How cool would that be? I can't wait to hear about Vatican City. I was really hoping that instead of pizza and pasta you would dine on more goat fat or possibly something squirmy. To be in Rome-it is one of the places I really want to go to. Give your parents a hug for taking you on such a fabulous adventure.

PS 'some famous sculpture? a museum?' isn't this homework?
The "famous sculpture" is a statue of the two sons, begging their father not to accept the Trojan Horse. In fact, this statue was at first in pieces, and it had to be put back together, piece by piece.
ReplyDeleteThe museum was before the Sistene Chapel. This picture is not of the chapel itself, but this is the Immaculate Conception room in the Vatican Museum. So, just to recap, this is a room BEFORE we entered the Sistene Chapel.
I will be more specific from now on, but the darkness and the mosquitoes were closing in on me. I kinda had to be fast to not be eaten alive. ;)

Don't you just love the traffic in Rome? I have never seen anything like it. It is mind blowing
