Roma – Day 5?!

There goes our plane!! Due to a weight restriction we weren’t able to get on the flight. There were plenty of open seats, but I guess we would just be too heavy. haha. Oh well, we were excited to spend another day in Rome!

 
I was having a conversation with Clark while we were riding back to Rome. I was looking out at the scenery while I talked, and when I looked over he was out!
 
This Gelato was amazing! We got the fruit Gelato this time and man, It was sooooo tasty. I got Mango and Melon.
I think we needed to stay in Rome an extra day so Clark could experience more Italian food. I feel bad that we didn’t eat more gelato this trip.
 
Haha I bet they didn’t expect us to be eating with them again. I sure love this family. They were so good to us.
 
It was a really hot day, so whenever we passed by a church (and there are a lot to pass by everywhere in Rome), we would stop in and sit down to cool off for a few minutes.


So all day I wanted a hat. I was looking around so I could buy one because I wanted a hat. We show up at this Olympic Game festival that they were doing and they were giving away a ton of stuff including hats. I was STOKED!!!!

Thank you FFA for teaching me such great skills.


After I did this high jump a lady invited me to challenge some Olympic competitors to the high jump. They came over, but we only each did one jump. They were probably too scared to raise the bar.

So we were just shooting the basketball around when the girl on the far right came up to me and said, “Hey want to play a game?” I never pass up a game of Bball. I said of course and we split up and played some 3 on 3. They were such a fun group because they loved to play and have fun. We played for about 15 minutes until we were all sweaty. It was a blast.

We found Aslan!


This was us after Basketball. We were sweatin like crazy!
I think it may be hard to see, but my arm was soaked.


 
 All three of these guys were on the mission with me! They’re still there! haha.

The fireside was nice, the refreshments were awesome!
 
 
This is me and Eugenia. She speaks Russian, Romanian, English and Italian. I am glad she could speak English.
 
 
Dima took this picture – If you look in the background you can see it looks like there’s a shoe under that chair. haha. Really it’s just some guys foot.
