We've decided that we need to get out and see more of Roma while we're here instead of travelling all over the country and missing what's in our backyard (plus it's a lot cheaper). On Friday we're heading to Villa Borghese to the museum that's housed there. We've actually learned a few lessons so we've already booked our time slot at the museum. We tried to go to this place a few months ago but since we didn't reserve a time slot we got rolled eyes, exaggerated sighs and the boot out the door for being idiot American tourists! We're looking forward to the Bernini sculptures and the Raphael and Caravaggio paintings too.

As for Sunday, we're meeting with one of our students (born and raised in Roma) and she's going to take us on a little tour of Roma in her car. We'll be able to check out a few spots that would otherwise be impossible to reach via bus so that ought to be pretty cool too. Hopefully, we'll get some cool photos and see some cool places that we'll be able to show you all when you come out!
