And so we have left London, on to Rome! I was a little nervous to leave London. I had gotten comfortable with the city and leaving London would mean having to be out of my comfort zone again. But once again allowing myself to leave my comfort zone has proven to be beneficial! We flew to Rome this morning. Before we went to our hostel we stopped in Ostia Antica. It is a beautiful old Roman city. It was around at the height of the Roman Empire. The city was beautiful. I just wish I could have seen it at its height! I would have loved to have a time machine so I could go back to see what the town was like at the Height of its time. The town was so Gorgeous and well preserved. I wish I knew what the people were like and how their lives were. I want to do some more research about the culture in this sea side town. As a history major, I loved this town.
Gelato is heavenly! I love it. I love it so much I ate it twice this evening. Once before dinner and once after. It was my first experience with it and Italian food. I am going to love Italy, I just know it!
Another first for the day was me jumping into the Mediterranean Sea. The water was freezing and the natives were looking at us like we were insane, and we might have been a little crazy. It was a must do though! How often are you going to get the chance to swim in the Mediterranean Sea?
