Evening in Roma

My train was about 10 minutes late. I found the luggage storage place and dropped off my bags. Walking to the restaurant, I passed the Diocletian Baths. Wow-- the energy here is so different!

I found the restaurant where Pam said. It was a bit of a tourist trap. I had a spritz while I waited. They showed up right before 6pm. A bit older crowd than I'm used to. Also, not into the concept of, "when in Rome..." as they ordered Chianti. I ordered Carbonara and suggested we try a wine from Lazio. One of the guys, Dan, loved it.

I wanted to go to Trevi Fountain or Piazza Navona, but the taxi service didn't work. They gave up and we went to their chichi hotel for drinks. Since they paid for dinner, I said I'd pay for drinks. Shit 120€. Oh well...

I'm on the train to Fumicino. Will get 3 hours of sleep.Read more
