Friday we took the train to Rome. We had a bit of a scare because we only had 12 minutes to transfer. We could not find our next train, but come to find out it was actually a bus and we got on 1 minute before it left. Whew! That night I had the best pizza of the trip at a restaurant near our hotel. It was a margarita pizza and just 7 euros.
Sunday we went to Rome Baptist Church, an international church in Rome. After that we headed to the Colosseum, Roman Forum, and Palatine Square. We bought our tickets at the Palentine Square which allowed us to skip the long line at the Colosseum. We ate our packed sandwiches at the Colosseum while we waited for our tour. We did a group tour there that lasted about 45 minutes. We just walked around the other places.

That evening we did a free Rome walking tour. We dinner at a place that offered bruschetta, pizza, and dessert for 10 euros. The bruschetta was good, the pizza was mediocre, and the dessert 2-3 bites of terrible.
One night we met up with Brenda's old roommate and her husband for dinner. It was pretty neat that they were in Rome the same time we were!
That night I had my favorite pasta of the trip- 4 cheese pasta
