I slept a good three to four hours last night on the flight to Rome from Atlanta. My friend Lane thankfully sat next to me on the flight, so we were able to spread out in our small space to attempt to sleep. We arrived in Rome around 9:30 in the morning Rome time.

So finally we were able to get to our apartment. There are five girls in my apartment. It is a large apartment though. There are three rooms and a kitchen, two baths, and a living area. This is an image of my room! 

After getting settled in our apartment we decided to go to the grocery store. In Rome you either take your own bags, or you get charged for each plastic bag you use of theirs. Thankfully I was over prepared and brought my own grocery bags! 🙂

After grocery shopping we went exploring. I got a shot of expresso that was stronger than I ever imagined! I do not know how these Italians drink so much of it all day long.

We then quickly went to meet up with the rest of our group for dinner. We feasted at dinner too. There was so much food and wine I was in awe. I tried all new things! So Mom and Drew would be very proud of my adventurous food tasting!

And now I am curled up in bed ready for some much needed rest.
