More Roma

Today was lots of fun! We slept in late and headed back to the collesuem to continue our tour. We waited for about 30 min then a very loud Canadian guide came and took us to to Palatine hill. It was a very good tour. The palace that used to be there is UNREAL. So huge! Then Eric and I gave Sean and Joel a very patchy tour through the Roman Forum, from what we remembered from last time. After that we were all starving and bought pizza by the kilo. It was the best yet! Then we went and saw the AMAZING 2000 year old Pantheon. Then we searched for Giolitti, the most famous gelateria in Rome. The gelato was AMAZING from there. Best yet. After that we walked around the Trevi fountain and Spanish Steps some more. We also went to the most lavish McDonalds in the world by the Spanish Steps... it sells gelato! and has a salad bar! and a coffee and pastry place! and its probably the only McDs in the world to have a mosaic! We didnt eat there though. We came back to the hostel and made pasta. There are like 30 10-12 year old kids staying here. They are so annoying and loud. They come in just after 8 everynight and scream their faces off. I think they are from England. I wish they would leave soon.

Side Note: I know I promised pictures, but I didnt realize I would be kicked out of that hostel because they had no room and had to move to another hostel where I could put pics on. I am really sorry. I have no Idea when I can do it again. Maybe in a few days.
