Right now I am in bed at our hotel in Rome, stuffed from a delicious italian meal and completely ready to sleep. It is 8PM here, but Macy, Meghan, and I are all super jet-lagged. We got to the airport on friday and left for london at 4, which is a 10 hour plain ride. We were on British Airways, which is on strike right now, so our plane was half empty, leaving us plenty of room! This was amazing because I got an entire row to myself...perfect for sleep! I read some of my new book Little Bee and watched It's Complicated, which wasn't that great, before taking a 6 hour nap. We got to London around 10am and by this time all of us were still exhausted. Although, I realized we were in a brand new city 3,000 miles away, which gave me an adrenaline rush, leading me to take some pictures of London (at least what was visible). We shopped around some airport boutiques and I bought a sandwich at Starbucks that was titled "mature cheddar with pickle". For me that was being adventurous and eating a true "British" sandwich. We left for Rome, which was a 2 hour flight, where I read some more of my book and took a small nap. We finally arrived in Rome at 5PM and caught the shuttle to the hotel, which wasn't that far from the airport. l We decided to walk to this restaurant and eat a real italian dinner! I got pesto pasta with zucchini, Meghan got pizza, and Macy got tomato pasta! IT WAS DELICIOUS!
