Roma and the boata? hmmm lame...
The ferry ride from Patras to Ancona was... well... painful. The eurail pass gets you a deck passage (still costs 46euro due to taxes) and a deck passage means you sleep on the top of the boat almost out in the open. Fun! You could tell the people who had done it before as they had blow up matresses and stuff. I on the other hand attempted sleep in the benches which hold the life jackets. At least I would have one before everyone else if the ship did go down.
Anyway after the lovely 21 hours on that floating pain vehical I arrived in Ancona. Found the train station and the train to Rome was in 45mins. The train to Rome was a regional train which meant it stopped at every station and took 4.5hrs to get to Rome. Bah.
Rome. Amazing place. Today I walked a very long distance. Went to the Vatican, saw the Trevi Fountain, climbed the Spanish Steps, visited the Pantheon, saw several of the amazing squares and the Colloseum. What do I have left? Im sure I will find something :)
My train to Munich on Sunday night is booked. Will have a couple nights there where I will meet up with a friend from work. Will be nice to see someone from home.
Should be good.
