A day in the life of the geeks...



Gitaine here! Boy have we done a lot! We went to the Roman Forum and walked the streets the ancient romans did. Then we went to Trajan's Market and explored ancient shops. The next day we got up extra early (4:00am) and hopped a train to Pompeii! Unfortunaetly, one of our adults here slipped and fell on the stairs in the apartment. There is no need to worry!! He is fine, and is resting as we speak. Pompeii was great. We practically walked a whole city in 3 hours.The body casts were amazing! The picture you see is a body cast of a dog. Then we took a train to Naples, where we went to the Archaelogical museum and ate some original Napolina pizza. Yummy! Today we took it easy and went to the National Museum of Rome. Then we went to a church that once held the Diocletian baths. Afterwards we went to Capucchin Crypts. It was very spooky looking at the artwork made out of human bones. Well that was the last few days in a nutshell, you shall hear from us soon! Ciao!
