I'm getting used to this city already. I'm also getting used to eating gelato daily. Hopefully that won't become a problem. Somehow I feel entitled because it is literally everywhere, and people are eating it everywhere and all the time.
Last night my pals Jaime and Grayson and I had our own little party. Boy was it fun! Couple bottles of prosecco and then we hit the vodka bottle (and nearly finished it. Oops). We decided since it was spring break that we were totally justified and entitled! It was a really late night so our start to today was slow. We walked to the Vatican, although we were not ready to stand in line to get in just yet. It's pretty damn amazing though to see in person! It's hard to comprehend how enormous the columns are without standing next to one. The rest of the day was spent doing a little shopping (but no buying), walking around the Piazza Navona and checking out the street art, visiting the Pantheon (WOW!!!!) and the Trevi Fountain. It is unreal to me that I can get to all these places within a short walk from my apartment. I am feeling like three months will only be enough time to barely scratch the surface of this place. There is so much to see and experience.
