... means "are there onlons." If you are trying to order a pepperoni pizza in Italy, and they tell you that a pizza covered in bell peppers is the pepperoni pizza, do not believe that there is a delicious meat underneath it all. 

On a better note, the apartment that I am staying in is huge.  I am positive that it is even bigger than the 4 rm townhouse I am living in next year.  I can't tell you the square footage, but the room I ...

... 4 years painting it. It was his first painting since he was a sculptor by trade! The ceiling depicted the story of Adam and Eve- also learned Michealangelo had a low opinion of women. The large photo on the alter was of the judgement and showed the people in heaven, hell and on earth all being judged the same as mortals.
Walked into the Basilica next which was extremely crowded. I guess I should have expected this since it was the day ...

... the outside. Inside, it's got a couple pretty incredible artifacts. First, St. Peter's chains. One set was from Jerusalem and the other from Rome (he was imprisoned in both). There also is Michaelangelo's "Moses" statue. It was just a brief visit, then off. The Colosseum was pretty incredible. I had seen the outside of it the first night in Rome, but I was still pretty awed by the size of it. People told me, like the Mona Lisa, that they were ...

... wonderful city. I knew trekking through Roma would be difficult, especially on my new friends - crutches from an accident at the Villa Arianna - but I was determined to be in the city I love once again. Our journey of Roma began at the Basilica di Santa Maria degli Angeli, which had once been part of a bathhouse of ancient Roma and housed an modern solar calendar on the floor. We also made it to the Forum Romanum and the Coliseum, which have not changed too ...

... that can stay standing... save a nuclear war, I believe anything can. But you know what: there's always next time. [h2]It's the Truth: It's Not Always a Roman Holiday[/h2] Eventually we made our way down to Santa Maria in Cosmedin, more famously known as the church with La Bocca della Veritŕ, thanks to a little film called Roman Holiday. It was the first and only real church we visited during our days in Rome (not counting the Pantheon, technically a church), and the real ...

Now rome, like in the caption. Rome is amazing. I am running out of adjectives but rome is a place where everywhere you look there is something to see, a picture to take, history is all around you. We are using three maps because all of them leave things out and i reckon its because if you included everything there would be no room to show you the street. ůspeak of amazing, yesterday we got up early and paid a tour group to go to the vatican museums, and of course saw the ...

... with was the younger group. In the first week, my German came in handy because most of the kids (aged 8-10)could barely say their name and age in English. The second week of camp, however, ran much more smoothly and I was able to get by with just speaking English to my group. Although I was still teaching the youngest group, they were aged 9-12 and had had much more English in school. At the end of it all though, I have a new penpal. One of the campers will be ...

... cute priest rushed off. A nun skipped over a giant tangle of the camera cables causing roadbumps every 20 feet on the street leading to the piazza. A young man emerged from a nicknack shop, drew his newly purchased rosary from its little plastic baggie, and gave it a kiss. A bunch of German tourists stomped by following the direction of a tour guide carrying a rainbow-colored umbrella. They all wore yellow handkerchiefs around their necks. Wait, WAS this a ...

... we are taking a 3 hour train ride to Rome. We have heard from many other backpackers that Rome is HOT, Crowded and nearly impossible for accomodations! Luckily, we have the internet...Kevin (my boyfriend) was able to secure us the 4 nights in Rome at a hostel-yeah! We have also heard that Cinque Terra is quite busy as well-one group of guys that we met this morning mentioned that they had to sleep on a bench there, maybe we will just ...
