Today wasn’t as exciting as the days before. It was definitely exciting, just not as much as seeing the Coliseum or climbing the Basilica. We went to the United States Embassy of the Holy See. It was really quite interesting although I don’t remember much. We took a bus across the city, past the Coliseum to the Embassy grounds. They checked our passports and put our phones in a box then we sat down for the presentation. The ambassador was very friendly and kind and answered all of our questions. I can’t remember them all but I remember that her answers were exactly what I was looking for. After that we toured a few nearby smaller churches which were beautiful themselves because no one was there and it was very quite, excluding the sound of my classmate’s footsteps and whispers.
For dinner I had lasagna and it was fantastic. The dessert was called something I can’t remember but it was great too! Afterword we went to look for the market again and I looked around again. I still haven’t found anything I like yet but hopefully Florence will fix that.
