This weekend I was lucky enough to have the chance to travel to Rome with my classmates! I felt apprehensive about travelling to Rome because I knew the city is notorious for pickpockets. Thankfully, my trip was nothing but pleasant. The first stop on our agenda was the Coliseum. We were granted entrance fairly quickly and spent a couple hours walking around the inside as well as making a stop by the columns right next to us. We briefly ran home to freshen up before heading back out for dinner. On the way to dinner we ran into the Trevi Fountain, which was one of the biggest attractions in Rome that I wanted to visit. The girls and I took turns taking pictures and throwing coins in the fountain and then went to dinner. The next morning we had a late start because we were up fairly late watching the Lizzie Mcguire movie together. Our next conqest was Vatican City! I cried a bit inside St. Peter’s Basilica. It was a beaitiful and spiritual experience that I will never forget, I only wish my parents had been with me. After the Vatican we walked around the shops and went to the Pantheon. Rome was absolutely magical and I’m so happy that I was able to spend a weekend there.
