WHEW!

Today I did another of my itineraries (yes, there are a lot of them!) and FINALLY found Piazza Navona!! I'd been wanting to go for so long, but didn't know where it was!! It's truly gorgeous..three fountains in the middle of a square lined with restaurants and bustling with people and NOT with cars (except that the middle fountain, the biggest, was under repair). And BOY are there some gorgeous churches in that area. HOLY COW! I saw at least three that are not nearly as famous as St. Peter's but CERTAINLY rival it in beauty. WOOOO! Then, I continued my walk to the Pantheon to make up for the other day. Pretty awesome on the inside. After, I caught a bus right back to Amalia's (wow I'm good) and went to the grocery store for some lunch. On the bus, I felt like my butt was wet. So I looked at my backpack and my water bottle had opened inside!! Luckily my camera wasn't in there (we all know what happened last time) but my cell phone got wet and wouldn't work! AHHH! So I facebooked Debora and told her and she called me at Veronica's, HAHAHA. So I went over to see her and the kids and we hung out. Debora made a delicious curry chicken with rice for us for dinner! Then she went out and I watched The 100 Greatest Songs of the 90s on VH1 while I waited for Amalia and Federico to come back. It was great to watch an American show, even though I've never watched VH1 at home. HAHA! After trying to turn on the cellphone all night, and getting progressively more successful (the buttons won't work, then the 1 button works, then the 2 and 3 work), it finally worked completely when I left!! WHEW!!

Tomorrow we're all going to Fregene because the house is finally done! And we're going to stay until Tuesday. So if i don't write until then, don't get too excited..I didn't go to Sepino (although I wish I were!!)
