My last 24 hours

In my last 24 hours in Italy/Roma I...

Watched an FC Barcelona-Liverpool match and drank a Guinness with two of my Canadian buddies (Nima and Kamen)

Ate my last cornetto con Nutella

Drank one cappuccino, 2 espressos

Watched Chips and Knight Rider in Italian

Visited Piazza San Pietro

Climbed 551 steps to the top of the Cupola for an astounding view of Roma

Strolled through the Vatican Basilica (it's huge and amazing)

Helped an Egyptian with which bus to take

Ate lunch while looking at the Roman Forum

Ate: Prosciutto crudo, Grana Padano and Nutella flavored gelato

Carried almost 40 kilograms of luggage to the train station/airport

Sprayed myself with Chanel Allure at the Duty Free in Fiumicino (my new favorite perfume)

Only showed my ID once at the airport, when I checked my bags, not when I went through security or when I got on the plane (scaaarrry right?)

Heard at least six languages

Thought about how much I like Rome....
