So How Does Dancing On the Ruins Sound?


We started the day off my making a trip to the Maxxi Museum! I honestly didn’t know it was so close to where we were staying, so thanks to Jinah we were able to check it out for a bit. While Jinah and Yoshie went inside, Edgar, Lu, Sherry, and I stayed outside and in the lobby space taking more pictures haha. We landscape around the museum is almost like a sculpture garden or some sort… haha so we made use of the interesting features of the garden and took pictures haha.

Anywho, afterwards we all made our way to some very important sites of Rome! : Piazza del Popolo, Piazza del Spagna (the Spanish steps), Colosseo, the Arch of Constantine, and Piazza Navona! Haha as you can imagine, it was a very FULL day today. The Coliseum… is something else. As soon as we got off the last stop of the metro and walked outside the door to see the Coliseum facing us… we were all just blown away by what was before our eyes. Dude, it looks SO MUCH bigger and massive in person. It’s absolutely amazing.

We ended the evening by searching for the cheapest Italian restaurant to eat at haha. We went down the line of restaurants in Piazza Navona and eventually ate at and ended up outside of the plaza Navona… what grabbed our attention you may ask? Well, other than the prices being the cheapest, by far, the waiter who was trying to sell the place was super nice to us and had an awesome sense of humor haha. He was definitely #2 on Lu’s list haha. Other than the fact that Lu had to wait an extra long time for her food, dinner was exceptional! The waiter was so nice that he gave us all free coffees before leaving – on the house!
