Today is our first day of real sunshine and no rain!! YAY!!! Since it was such a
beautiful day and our last one in Rome Kendall and I decided to take a walk down to
the Trevi! On our way out we met another group and all joined together for the hike!
We all took turns throwing our euros into the Trevi for the chance to come back to
Rome and great photo opportunities! Tonight will be the most amazing dinner we have
ever had in our lives…that I am sure of! Dr. A, maybe we will get a pic of Daniel
kissing Mitchell on the cheeck like Bryce did to you!!! HAHAHA!!! GREAT MEMORIES!
I realized about half way through the trip that I had great expectations of this one
because of the first time I came with Dr. Abernathy two years ago. Many things are
different about this one and that was exciting for me but also bummed me out a lot. I
thought that things should be the same and we should stay in the same places and see
the same things but that is not what happened. I got extremely homesick on this trip
and had a lot of alone time. Alone time as in being with the group in the museums but
drifting over to a painting or sculpture and taking a closer look for myself. Dr.
Mitchell has been an absolute blast the entire week! Last night I became one of the
guys and got to have dinner with him, Daniel, Kendall, and Michael…what an adventure
that was! I love my girls on this trip, don’t get me wrong but there is just
something about the guys that keep me calm and laughing.
This is the last time I will get to blog until I land in Mob-town and Im rather sad
about that. I am going to take some time on our upcoming 8 hour plane ride, gather my
favorite memories of this trip, and send those and LOTS of pictures for my last one.
USA, here I come!!
