Saturday Night Fever! (Stayin' alive! Stayin' alive!)

We made it to Rome, and once again thanks to Priceline (no, they are not paying us to pimp them...yet- Priceline, contact us!) we will be staying at an awesome hotel rather than the roach infested stench pit we first walked into out of the train station. It took us a bit longer to find an internet cafe here. There was not one in the train station, which was weird because even Brussels had one! On the other hand, it is amazingly cheap, so it was worth the walk.

The night train was awesome! We booked a sleeper that we were supposed to share with three other people, but nobody else came so we had it to ourselves. It was very comfortable and it was nice to be productive while we slept. We also got breakfast included, for the first time since we have been in Europe.

We just got here, so we have not done anything yet. We plan to cram in a lot today, and then off to Naples and Pompei tomorrow or the next day. We will see how much we can manage to do today. First step, check into the hotel, then off to the colleseum

Sounds like a whirlwind tour, alright! Glad you are having so much fun (and that you did not get mugged in Brussels)!
