How good is Rome?

Woooooooooooooow! (That means it's a bit good).

As I've said previously to a good friend of mine, it's kinda strange being in Rome. I'm used to speaking to Americans about the UK, and they always mention how great it is that we have so much history; and that they wished they had the same. Well for the first time in my life I'm in a place that makes me laugh at the 'newness' of England. Ok, so we have history, but nothing on the scale of this place. You'll wander around a corner and...ooops, there's another 2000 year old building. The history is awe inspiring.

I had the best Spagetthi Carbonara of my life about 30 seconds walk from the Trevi fountain last night. It was about 9.30pm and we were all in tee's and shorts. Nice bottle of vino to wash it down..OMG, absolute heaven.

I'd heard that Romans are a little grumpy, but the ones we've come across (no jokes please) so far have been most accommodating (again no jokes here). The only bad thing about Rome is that everytime you try and cross the road it's like playing Russian Roulette. I think I should get a badge should I get outta this place alive.

So it's the Vatican today. How cultured am I!!!? Are you proud of me? Do you care?
