Well, after 28 days they finally made me get off the ship today :(
We were up early and had breakfast and then were off the ship by 8:30am. Walked to the train station and caught the 10am train into Rome. We were hoping to get an earlier train but it was delayed. We got into Rome by 11:10. Walked (in the rain) to our B&B. We are staying at a cute place about a 15 minutes walk from the train station called Frank's House B&B. It is on Via La Marmora.
We settled into to our room and relaxed and had a glass of wine. Around 1:30pm (once the rain had stopped) we headed out to get a bite to eat. We went to a great place called Roscioli which was recommended by our B&B host Frank. We had pizza, beer and a couple pastries.
Walked around the neighbourhood for a while and then went back to our room to read/nap.
At 7pm we left to meet up with our trivia gang - Jo, Ian, Greg, Cyn and Sarah who are all staying in Rome for a few days. We had dinner at another great restaurant called "Wanted". A great meal and a great group of people!
Around 10:30pm we said good bye to Jo and Ian who were walking back to their hotel. We walked to the Metro with Greg and family. We all took the train to Termini were we parted ways. We got off at our stop (Vittorio Emanuele) and had about a 5 minute walk to our B&B.
It was a wonderful day in Rome!
Tomorrow - Rome and Orvieto, Italy
