A Day In Rome

So after Venice, we planned a day trip to Rome. It was a very interesting trip. It started a little bit shaky, and ended a bit shaky, but all the in between and seeing the awesome sights was great. The day started off with me & the girl in the picture above, getting on the wrong train. It still went to Rome, only it was the Eurostar, which is nicer, quicker, and more expensive, instead of the cheaper, slower train. This wouldn't have been a scare except for the fact that the rest of our group was on the other train with our group tickets. So me and Rachel arrived in Rome not knowing if the rest of our group stayed on the train, or got off cuz we weren't with them. Luckily the train ticket checkers had mercy on us when we told them the situation & didn't make us pay more money. We were there for 2 hours by ourselves waiting for the other train to arrive with our friends on it. It was a bit scary & not gonna lie, I was a bit nervous being in a foreign unfamiliar place with only one other person. Luckily our group ended up showing up so we were relieved! After this, we got on a double-decker tour bus, and hit up the main tourist attractions in Rome. We figured this was the best way to get around and see all of the main sites in only one day. Everything for the rest of the day went well except my main complaint was that the service was crapy and the people here were not friendly at all! We had restaurant owners raise there prices on us, and got ripped off royally at the restaurant we had dinner at. It put us in a really bad mood unfortunately. So if there is one bit of advice I would give to anyone visiting Rome, it would be to bring your own food and not depend on anyone to serve you with a smile. Other than that our day was well spent!
