First few days

July 30th
For my first journal entry, I will tell you about my first airplane ride. Going off the runway was my favourite part. There was a movie but I didn't like it. Landing was fun too. When we got off the plane we went to get our bags.



July 31st
We just came off an airplane with new friends, David and Ray. David helped us get our tickets for the train. On the train I looked out the window the whole time. When we got off the train papa called the woman a the hotel and told her we were coming so we lugged our backpacks to the hotel, got the key and went up five flights of stairs. Then we went to the market and bought pizza.


August 1st
When I got up this morning I went to go on the terrace. I started to open the doors but there was a loud creaking noise. After a little bit we had breakfast. We went to see a castle, then we got gelati. My gelati tasted like freshly picked raspberries. When we were done, we went to the Pantheon. It was very intricately built. The marble was smooth and shiny. After that we saw three more churches and then we walked home.
