Jan 15

Rob and I went exploring on Via del Corso. The streets were packed. People walked right down the middle of the road to make room. After shopping, (its saldi or sale time in Rome. They only have two a year) we went to the Trevi Fountain which was far larger than I thought. It's definitely a must see Roman attraction at night. Rob and I discussed how amazing the sculptures are. I'll definitely toss a coin in before I leave the city.

At night Rob and I went to the Abbey Theatre near Campo dei Fiori to see the Steelers play the Jets. It was a good game and we met a bunch of Steelers fans including a fellow student from my program. After the game he told us we had to check out his and his fiancés' apartment. It is like a penthouse sweet on top of a building near Santa Maria Maggiore. The view was great.
