Italy Study Abroad : Day 4_Last day before the start of the program

Today was a day to get together my strength from the last few days of exhausting site seeing. It was good to lay back and relax before the program starts tomorrow and the fun begins.

The weather in Rome is quite nice. It’s windy most of the time and pretty cool. I hope it stays this way for the rest of our time in Rome. It feels like California weather…

Since we stayed in most of the day, we only got to see few places during the night. Although we did goto the market this morning and it was quite a nice place. The outdoor market has some amazingly fresh fruits that looked good and smelt good. If only we had a grill, we would have been cooking clams and fresh fish. :)

We also met up with two of our friends who are on a different study abroad trip this summer and stayed that the same hostel with us.

Photos from today will be up soon :)

jtizzle asked: I am so glad you got those lens. You would have regretted it so badly. I enjoy reading your blogs. Now I'm gonna read my book. Miss you as always :)

I KNOW! I love this lens! But I’m not sure if it will be of use when I’m not traveling :( Miss you tons more!

Anonymous asked: So proud of you Bao! Having fun yet? Karen

It’s ok so far…just a bit exhausting, but I’m appreciating what I’m experiencing; both the good and the bad of travels. When it comes to site seeing, I love everything that I’m seeing :D. You and Lam should definitely come to Paris and Rome!
