Hey,
This morning we woke and left for Rome! I was soooo fricken hungover it sucked! My only relief was seeing jodie, clare and about another 10 people that looked worse than i did HAHA! We drove to Oriveto where we traveled via a train thing to this hilltop township which was very pretty, kool views over the plains. Had a kebab for lunch which brought me right, unfortunatly jodie didnt make it to the kebab without spewing infront of everyone first haha.
We arrived in Rome about 2pm and we started a very long walking tour of the city, it was very cool tho. We seen all the major sites including the Spanish Steps, Trevi Foundtain (natural springs quite amazing considering when it was created), the Pantheon which is huge, and of course the Coloseum which was a big eye opener, its bloody massive!
We then went back to camp, where we got served some wicked Lasagne and salad which was soooo YUM! and Tiramasu for desert! It was an early night that night not suprisingly!
Next morning was a very early start, we left camp at 7am to head to Vatican City for our tour of The Vatican museum and of course the Sistene Chapel and St Peters Basillica. Had an American Art History Student as our tour guide so was very interesting. The artworks are just crazy considering how high up they are and how long ago they were done, its called Fresco and its done by using henious stuff like rotten veges and eggs and sulphur and stuff. No idea how they dont it back in the day it seems impossible!
It was 39 degrees by 11am and we were sweating like pigs coz we had to have our knees and shoulders covered to get into the Basillica. So we decided that it was time to go bak to the camping ground and the pool by 12pm. So we spent our avo lying on beach chairs by the pool, drinking beer in +40 degree temperatures hahahahahah do you all hate me right now!
We went to an outdoor movie screening on Australia that night, it was real cool. Would have been quite romantic had it not just been me Clare Talliah and Megs lol.
Righto off to venice next. our last Itallian destination!
xoxo
