We're getting our art on, y'all!

Day four!

Our third and final full day in Rome! I know it's the day after, but I was waaaaaay too tired last night to make a new post. We actually got to sleep in a little later since we didn't have a tour to be at. My body needed that extra hour. After our daily delicious breakfast we headed to the metro station to make our way to the Colosseum! Every time we get on the metro I have the desire to become Terri Nunn and belt out some Berlin. I was concerned with not knowing where to go once we exited the station, but was soon put at ease when this was the scene across from the station ...

Castle Black?!?

Day three!

Day three had  a looooot going on! We had a tour of the Vatican, Sistine Chapel and St. Peter's Basilica, lunch in Vatican city, saw Castel Sant' Angelo (Castle Black according to Mila and I), then went to the Spanish step (which were covered up unfortunately) and headed back to our hotel. 10 miles of walking in our 9ish hours out today! I'm exhausted, but it's toooootally worth it!

Ciao Italia!

Day two!

Today, which seemed to be 36 hours long, was packed with awesome sight seeing and cool pictures! The places I remember visiting were the Pantheon, Fontana di Trevi, and Santa Maria della Minerva. I am EXHAUSTED since I've been awake since 7:45 Wednesday morning (it now being 2:43 Thursday afternoon back home) so I'm just going to share some pictures! Hope you don't mind! :)

We're goin to Italy, y'all!

Day one!

The first stop on our way to Rome was Detroit, MI. While it may not seem like something to post about, I had to share the coolest thing I've seen in an airport to date! There was a tram inside the airport. Yes, you read that right. A tram ... INSIDE the airport! I mean, how cool is that!?!


Well, after a quick bite on our lay over that was a little over an hour, we loaded our plane to Italy!

Off To Italia!

I know, I know ... it's been almost 5 months since I last posted! Let me tell ya, the end of the school year was absolutely insane! And it didn't stop there! After a couple of days off, I had workshops, summer school, got to actually spend Father's Day with my dad, more workshops, helping mom get ready for a 4th of July party and now ... I'm off to Italy! My Aunt and Cousin invited me to go with them overseas this summer and I'm excited and nervous all at the same time (nervcited!). I'm more than sure I'll take a ton of pictures and hopefully I'll get them uploaded on here!


I feel like I have waaaaay too much on my travel checklist ... but it is 3 cities in 10 days and all the way across the ocean! Narrowing down make up was not the easiest! Well, off to my Aunt's to stay the night before we head out across the pond! Hope everyone is having their own blast this summer!

Arrivederci America! Ciao Italia! Happy vacationing!
