Day 7 - Roma, Italia

Image
I woke up leisurely this morning. This feeling lasted all of two seconds until I checked my watch and saw the time. 8:15. Class starts at 8:30. So I jumped up, woke Mckell (my roomie) up, and got ready as fast as I could. I was done in 5 minutes, but still! I hate being rushed. But it could have been worse. I could have woken up after 8:30. Anyway, first stop: the colosseum. Did you get that? THE COLOSSEUM. Yeah. About half the girls are in this picture. From the left: Mckell Mecham, Me, Tabitha, Elisabeth, Hilary, Ali, Courtney, Kaitlynn, Claire, Heidi. Off to the right side: Cassandra, Mckell Forbes, Sierra (you can only see her back). Lovely... Then we lectured at the Arch of Constantine. Rome had a really terrible emperor and when Constantine heard about it, he came and conquered. So they made him an arch. Pretty awesome. The Arch and the Colosseum :D Then we headed to the Roman forum. It is quite gigantic. I believe this is the Arch of Titus. Pretty awesome. Spoils from the Temple
