Rainy a Roma

So we finally got to our apartment...we stayed in a 60 euro a night hotel last night because I lost my Vera duffle and was unable to make it to the University Housing Office in time. I shared a room with Vanessa and Erika shared a room with her friend who is visiting (she's been traveling Italia for the past 3 weeks and is now in Roma and staying with us for a few nights), Nicole. Nicole found the hotel so by the time we got off the train from the airport we checked in. We quickly changed and went out to dinner. I had the best rigatoni I've ever had in my life with alfredo sauce, onions and bacon. Sounds strange, yet completely appetizing. Ordered some house wine and sat around with the girls for the night talking.

We then got on Linea B (the train near Termini, the area where we stayed for the night) and went to see the Colleseo (Colleseum) and Roman Forum all lit up at night. It was amazing and I am going to update photos later on today when I get the chance. I have orientation at 3pm so I will be updating probably after that. Tonight we may go to a Pub Crawl depending on the weather and meet up with my friend Jon and his roommates.

Ciao ciao ciao!
