    Drive to Rome

    June 30, 2018 in Italy ⋅ ☀️ 28 °C

    We woke up early and ate breakfast at the hotel. It was a continental breakfast, it was simple but filling. We had a Vatican tour at 2:30 in Rome and had to drop off the luggage and return the car before that. Once we arrived in Rome, it was a rush. We checked into our apartment while Raghav went and returned the car. After we checked into the apartment, the host informed us that there was a delicious Pizza place right under the apartment. We quickly eat there for lunch and packed some pizza for Raghav. Raghav met us at the apartment and we drove to the Vatican City. It was by far the most crowded place we visited all trip. We learned that over 25,000 people visit every day. We saw the Vatican Museums, the Sistine Chapel, and St. Peter's Basilica. They were all grand and beautiful but very crowded. After the tour, we returned to the apartment, freshened up, and headed to Ponte Sisto for the river festival. There was a lot of activity, we played arcade games, shopped, and ate dinner on the river bank. After dinner, we retired to our apartment, a very hectic but fun day.Read more
