Day 39 2/19/12

Today Michelle, Shelby and I slept in later. Jordan and Sarah had decided they wanted to go to mass at the Vatakin and they did. I did not want go since I felt uncomfortable being Jewish and going to a mass for Catholics. That is just for me. We got up later and I finally showered and got dressed after a while of just being lazy and trying to find a site where I could watch Glee. By the time we were all finished getting ready it was close to one and the three of us were starving! We were trying to be nice and just wait but we finally gave up and planned to leave them a note. By the time we were leaving we had caught them coming up the stairs. We waited for them to change and went to this cute little pizza place we saw on our way to the pubs from the night before. I got this potatoes pizza and it was delicious! I love how they cut the pizza up in halves and fold it in a sandwich. It is cute and easy to eat! Then we headed back to the hostel to figure out what we wanted to do. Shelby, Michelle and I wanted to go shopping and Jordan and Sarah wanted to do something else so we went out without them. We went to Flamingo station. We had to take the metro (the underground/subway). Turns out its by the Spanish stairs. We came right in time because they were having a circus type of celebration there. We walked around it for a few minutes and then got to watch the parade. It was pretty good. Then we decided to check out some random stores. I guess I am just too fat for Europe because nothing seems to fit me. I guess I am so use to it that it did not destroy the little self esteem I already have left. After a bit of shopping we decided to find a place to eat. We walked back up the street towards the metro. We checked out a few stores and finally found a restaurant that we liked. Do I remember the name? No. I ordered ravioli with a four cheese type of sauce that looked like alfredo and the raviolis had spinach and cheese inside. It was quite good. I even got an alcoholic drink. Something called orange something. It was gross and never again. It also stunk because I had to pay for my water. Apparently tap water is not free in Italy. After we ate we just chilled out in the restaurant. We had a nice chat about religion and death, which may seem eerie but I think we all learned a lot from each other. After that we took the metro back to the hostel. We got to the hostel and basically relaxed and got ready for bed. I did get to skype with Kaylyn. Other than that, that was my day.
