Refreshed after a good nights sleep I reported to breakfast to find there was not a hell of a lot that I could eat… so after a nutrition meal of ham and orange juice I jumped on the bus read for Rome and all it had to offer.
We arrived into rome and were dropped off the bus where we headed straight for the metro and darted into the city for some touristing.
Trevi Found, Colloseum, Roman Ruins, Monuments, Fountains, Castles and Art… There was so much to see in Rome and we managed to cram it into a few hours of speed walking in the hot sun. Today was a pretty good day for figuring out where everything is, tomorrow morning I have a tour of the vatican, so will go back to all the places I want to see again tomorrow.
I can not get over the quality of the art work in this city… it is amazing that in a life time someone can get so good at doing one thing.

After a day of site seeing it was time for a well deserved shower then a decent meal. Dinner was at the campsite and once again came with a nice Italian red wine. Dinner was an entree of salad severed with a pasta… this is where I had the best gluten free pasta of my life, which was a Eggplant and tomato spaghetti cooked to perfection with the most flavoursome sauce. It really did not get much better!
There was no dessert although the bar tenders did insist on the entire tour doing tequila laybacks (you lay back and they mix the shot in your mouth) before we were allowed to go and do washing, then prepare ourselves for the night ahead.
Once again the camping ground had a restaurant and bar so there was no need to take the metro into town to check out the night life, there were pleanty of people around to chat to, and the music and alcohol was flowing until the small hours of the morning… great if you want to party… not so great if you have to be at breakfast at 6:15am to get on a bus/train at 7am for your walking tour at 8am.
