when in rome...

roma drinking fountian

you just drink right from them or fill up your water bottle

coolest thing ever

well, today we didn't do as much sight seeing. today we lived like the romans do. relaxed and taking it easy. first, i got to sleep in and then off to the market. it wasn't exactly like i had imagined it. the clothes were all really cheap but, not any i liked very much. i did get a couple of really pretty rings like the one above. they are cool because they look old and are big, and chunky, and just are from italy. i also got a pair of classic italian black high heels. they were really nice and cheap and i liked them. i'm excited for them. then my last thing i got was some really cute sunglasses. i liked the market. then we went to lunch at a little family-owned restuarant. it was so cute and delicious. they even grew their own herbs out front. it was so cool. after that we had to get swimsuits so i bought my own italian swimsuit and also so perfume that smells so good and its in italian. i love italy. tomorrow our plan is to go by the sea and eat lunch then go to this little town thats supposed to be like pompeii except bigger and better. i'm excited. one thing in italy that i don't like is the no ice thing. it drives me crazy!! i'm so craving ice right now. but one cool thing about rome is they have these water fountians everywhere that just run always that have fresh water coming out of them. they are so good. well, i'm going to take a nap on a swing in a garden. could life get much better??
