    Another day in Rome. We saw more cool Roman stuff! Including Trajan's column, which features:
    - 25 spirals around
    - 222 trees depicted, 78 of which were felled
    - 58 features or Trajan himself
    - a historically significant number of women (in that they featured at all)

    Overall, the coolest monument around. We also saw Aurelius' column but he was less cool than Trajan.

    Also featured today were some other great sights from unantiquated Romans. Dinner was back in Trastevere - although our first choice had a 1hr+ queue out the front. Much like the Catholics, TikTok ruins everything.
