Rome






Hi everyone! I am on the bus traveling from Rome to Florence and I decided to set up my blog from my blackberry (how cool is that!) Well I was in Rome for four days and was not so crazy about the city as a whole but I saw some amazing things and places! My fave by far was the vatican! I have been there before with my parents but seeing all of the amazing pietas, sculptures and frescos after taking two art history classes, the place had a totally new meaning to me! I was so excited to see the sistine chapel and the laocoon pieta-both of which exceeded my expectations!! I have great pictures which I will be posting once I have my computer up so look out for those. My roommates are great. I am living with jillian, shari,cara (girls I knew) and lindsay who goes to cornell and carly, sam, rachel, jacqui,and Missy (who all go to Wisco).
Pics should be up soon!
