I just spent a wonderful 2 days tooling all around Rome by myself. It was heaven to do what I wanted, go where I wanted, and find all kinds of amazing things. My first day there I went to the colosseum, circus maximus, and the roman forum. Then I took a tour at night all round the city and saw everything lit up. The next day I got up early, headed over to the Vatican and so beautiful artwork by Michelangelo, Bonelli, and many others. I walked all the way from the Vatican to the Spanish Steps (acress Rome) and passed Castle San Angelo, the Piazza Navona, Trevi Fountain, the Pantheon, and a few other churches. I only got lost one time but managed to find a really cool church with the chapel to Mary Magdeline in it when I did, so it was a good adventure! I was tired and exhaused, but ended by day with local home made pasta, bruschetta, and local Italian wine. I made friends with the waiter, who brought me free champagne with my bill, such a nice guy. The next die I got up and went to work where my boy and ship was waiting for me refreshed and excited after 2 days in Rome bumming around.
The best part of traveling all by yourself is being able to do what ever the hell you want. You can push through a crowd and quickly glance at something or you can stand staring a t Michelangelo’s Moses for half an hour and no one else cares. It was wonderful, though it kinda sucks to have no one to talk to about all you have seen at the end of the day.
so for those of you out there living vicariously through me I present pictures!
