ROME, Italy - Buonasera from Rome! After the quick jump across the pond we arrived in Rome at about 7 a.m., local time. Everyone enjoyed the in-flight entertainment, but the food in the air left a little to be desired. The team averaged about 2.5 hours sleep per person, so we were running on adrenaline when we landed!
After a bus ride into the city, we wandered around the piazza for lunch before checking into the lovely Hotel Ponte Sisto Roma. Everyone needed a shower after the flight and the hot Italian sun, so it was a quick change before heading off to Vatican City.
