Ciao
Today was the most amazing, relaxing, exciting, and stressful day of my trip so far!
It was my first time trying to figure my way around Rome alone. Because I live so close to school and most of my friends would rather hang out at my apartment, I usually only walk around the area near to my school.
However, today we needed go meet at the Colosseum for photography class. My roommates told me that it would only take 20 minutes to get there, but it ended up taking me 30 mins. I was very scared because I got lost and very confused, but I did find my way there just in time for class. After that little misadventure, we were given our film and dismissed to go adventure on our own. It was so fun to watch the tourists run around the Colosseum looking crazy. But when I was in the back of the Colosseum it was very peaceful. The sun was shining and it was so warm, I enjoyed just sitting on a boulder and people watching and taking photos.
The day became a little more exciting when I heard loud booming voices and singing in the front of the Colosseum, so I quickly (with camera in hand) went to go find out what was going on.....it ended up being the Scottish Rugby Team! The Scotts had arrived! They were here for the weekend for the rugby game vs. Italy. Every place I went for the rest of the weekend I saw red and blond hair people in kilts!
The huge group of guys was sooo funny to watch and their songs were very entertaining.
I had a great time, and I can't wait to visit it again.
