Looks like today is going to be a very light final day, forecast calls for heavy rains throughout the day. Right now, it isn't raining yet but i pretty sure the storms will be coming our way soon enough.
Sarah, Kate and I imagined a wonderful feast throughout the ancient city of Rome all this week. Anytime we saw a statue that looked like it could hold water, we would consider it for a moment and then pretend that it was filled with some sort of favorite food. The first one we did at the National Museum of Rome on Tuesday was filled with split pea soup with ham and carrots. At the Vatican Museum, we pretended that some of the empty sarcophagus bases were filled with different flavors of jello. And at the city ruins of Ostia Antica, we filled a bowl with bananas. It was a wonderful game we played. The first person to see something that could be filled would quietly come to the others, point and say sliced ham. We'd smile, agree and the move on to the next interesting piece of history content in knowing that we had this outrageous feast waiting for us scattered throughout rome.
On Sunday mornings, there's not much open. I had to walk for a bit before I found someplace open to pick up pastries for breakfast. And they were a bit stale, my guess is that they're leftovers from yesterday.
