Arrivo

Well, I arrived this afternoon in Rome around 1:15pm (7:15am EST) and was happy the journey was over. The flight seemed to fly by (pun intended)... I sat next to a family that was actually on their way to Kilimanjaro for a "safari" trip on my connecting flight to Amsterdam. I was able to get some sleep, the food wasn't too bad (neither was the wine), and I had no complaints. I took a train from Fiumicino Airport to Termini (the main subway station), but of course, I couldn't fly overseas without some sort of adventure. I was fortunate enough (insert sarcasm) to have a nice, smelly french lady sit next to me. I was glad (again insert sarcasm) to have her hold open her arms, resting them so the whole train could enjoy her scent. Anyways, Franco picked me up at Lepanto metro station and we had a nice ride to Morlupo. Chris was there waiting for me, as jet-lagged, tired, and smelly (due to the french lady, believe me) as I was. She made a great dinner (carbonara) and we relaxed, watching a storm roll in. So, I made it...! That's all I have for now!

Amore,
S
