Rome

We woke at 7:15am today. We were going into Rome by ourselves today. The Taskers wanted to be off the ship by 7am but that is too early for us since we are on vacation.
It was another sunny day today but only 14C. We had a quick breakfast and were off the ship by 8:40 but we missed the train to Rome so we had to wait at the station for the 9:41 train. We arrived in Rome at 10:54. We walked to the hop on bus (at the opposite end of the station which took about 10 minutes)
We had a nice but chilly ride on the bus seeing all the major sites of Rome. We got off at Trevi Fountain and then walked to the Pantheon. We walked back to Trevi Fountain and stopped at a pizza place for real Italian pizza (sausage) which was really good. We got back on the bus and went back to the termini to catch the train. We caught the 2:39 train back to Civitavecchia. We had a short but sweet visit to Roma!
We walked around for a little while once we got off the train. I wanted to be back by sunset which was 4:50 and we were back on board at 4:30pm.
We went to the early show “Smokey Joe's Cafe” We sailed at 8pm while we were in the show. We also went to the late show which was a farewell show put on by the staff and crew. We then headed up to the buffet for the Chocoholic Buffet – YUM!
Tomorrow is our final full day on board the Jade and Carleigh's birthday!!
