T'was those SAS Scandinavian bastards. They made us check in our carry ons too because of a lack of space in the cabin, I had zero faith that the luggage would follow us through the rebookings.
Me - You're not gonna misplace our luggage, right?
Smiley SAS dude - No no! Your luggage will follow you.
Me - *nods* I trust you.
Smiley SAS dude - *awkward laugh*
Me - *awkward laugh*
We did retrieve our luggage in Rome. Pleasant surprise.
Guided tour of the Colosseum this AM, after which I wanna check out Appian Way either by bike or on foot.
We had our first pizzas last night, they were quite good.
Our room is funky - it's likely a Renaissance-era building with super tall ceilings and windows. JL is going through a horror movie phase and he thinks the room is haunted.
Once stayed in a room in Savannah where I'd lock the bathroom door and it would open over and over again
Also late at night heard someone walking around the room. Jennifer said it was someone upstairs, but I know the difference when I heard it, was definitely in the room and not from above.
I got goosebumps when we did the gladiator walk into the arena. Toadally worth the 24 EUR guided group tour.
We visited the catacombs of San Callisto after that, that was nuts. No photos allowed inside though. Seventeen popes and over 500,000 people were buried there between the 2nd and 5th centuries, roughly. Huge huge underground maze spread over five levels (only 2 have been fully excavated so far.)
