My Final Day in Rome...

Well, today started off pretty frustrating. I wanted to stay an extra day in Rome so I could take in the Vatican Museum again as well as possibly do a day trip to Pompei. Unfortunately, the hostel I'm staying in was full so I spent the morning finding a place to stay, both in Rome and in Florence. As it turned out, I was able to worki something out at my current hostel. But I had already bought my ticket to Florence for tomorrow morning. So I visited the Vatican Museum again and saw all the stuff I missed (and there was a ton of stuff......).

Sorry, no real Rome nightlife for me. I didn't come here for it anyway. But I have enjoyed many glasses of wine and beer at the hostel and a few really nice meals. One thing to recommend: Always look for a menu w/ prices before ordering. I, along with a couple girls from Irvine I met, got burned at a restaurant when the bill came to €50 (approx $65) for 3 simple entres and 3 cokes! Our own fault for being starving and eating at the first place we came upon.....
