Thank god for today

Becky, another hostel guest, and I spent the until lunchtime walking around Rome and listening to Rick steves talk about rome. It was neat. We saw a carabineri pass out and receive medical treatment, saw a few great niche churches, ate Jewish artichokes, and watched a movie get filmed. At some point we got smart and took a bus home. Very satisfying day.

After some downtime I went to the social hour at the bar and talked to a Frenchman, an American history student, a couple of dutchmen, and a Canadian citizen about politics and stuff. I even learned something about French political systems. After 3 drinks I couldn’t follow the conversation anymore. Time for bed.

I’ll say it again. Thank god for a good day.
