My flight to Rome, I was with our teacher and 4 other students. Our flight was delayed while on the runway in Philly for two hours. So, we arrived in Rome a little bit late. We were very tired, but we met up with the rest of our group and our tour guide, Josh. We hopped on a bus and took a short 20 minute ride to our Hotel Emmaus.This hotel was a great location, and right next to the “townsquare” in front of St. Peters Basilica. After we settled in at the hotel we gathered for our first Italian meal. Of course, most of us ate pizza which was amazing. After lunch, most of us took a nap and relaxed. A few hours later we were off to tour the local area with Josh. After that, we were all very tired and went to bed quite early. Tomorrow we will be studying at the University and see more amazing sites!
