We only thought we were joking...

Alyx, Chris and I went out to Campo Di Fiori to watch the soccer game last night. Roma had a rough start but ended up winning it which I can only assume was a big deal because the ENTIRE city was out honking car horns and waving flags. We spent our 30 minute walk home, cheering and yelling with all the Roma fans. I thought it would be calm and quiet by the time we got towards the Vatican and our residence but it just kept going. 

As we walked towards the vatican we made jokes about the Pope being a Roma fan only to find an AS Roma banner in a vatican window. hmmm maybe we only thought we were joking...

1 week and I'll (hopefully) be flying home.



If the volcano interupts my plans, I'm moving to Cinque Terre, living in a beach town, working at a bed and breakfast, and in my spare time I'll hike and go to the beach for the rest of my life.

Motion

My parents and I started the day off with mass at my church, Santa Susanna, then went to the vatican to see  the Pope who was actually not there, so instead he broadcasted his blessing and sermon. Next we tried to go to the Roma game, only to find out you have to buy the tickets at least a day in advance. Oh well. The bus was sooo crowded, we were packed in as tight as possible and the fans were all singing fight songs the whole way to the stadium. It was an experience anyway, even though we didnt get into the game. These are some of the pictures I took for my final photo project "Rome in Motion".
