Ancient Rome

We have arrived in Rome! Our apartment is very nice and across the road there is a cafe where we have our breakfast and a supermarket or super mercatie, or mercat in Barcelona. (We call them meerkats). 

On our first day we did our school work then took the tram to the colosseum and the Roman Forum. When we arrived the line to get in was really long. We bought tickets to get into the Roman Forum and the Colosseum but we ended up just going to the Forum. It was amazing. The Roman Forum is the ruins of the old Roman society. There is a museum that leads up to a bell tower that we climbed and it gives you a great view of the ruins. 

We left there and walked to have dinner at the Piazza Santa Maria in Trastevre. We had our second gelato of the day which was delicious then went home.
