Day 26 - 5T to Rome

Slow day today. Slept in till almost 10 and then caught a train from Riomaggiore to La Spezia to Rome. Train ride was almost 5 hours and not very exciting. Got into Rome at almost 5, so Termini was pretty busy and we had our eyes on the lookout for potential pickpocketers, and there were plenty of them, but we were fine.

We were hoping to stay at Alessondro's Downtown, but they were completely booked up, so they recommended us a place around the corner and we got into a dorm room fine (6 man).

We hit a internet/laundromat for 2 hours and i did laundry for the second time this trip. After that, me and Rob found a spot for dinner and then we wandered to the Colosseum to see it at night. It was well worth the 20 minute walk there adn we took a bunch of pictures from different angles and stuff. It was Rob's first time seeing it. I still love it.

We walked back, hit the phones in termini, and then crashed early. Big day of touring tomorrow. Hopefully taking a tour inside the Colosseum tomorrow.
