May 17th, Thursday

Today we had our exams for class, after our exam, and scavenger hunt, which Kate and I won, we went got pizza sandwich for lunch. Here they weigh the pizza and charge per weight, they also fold it over like a sandwich. It was delicious. Then we met our guide Paulo, and went to the bourghese which is like a villa, garden, and mansion built just for famous sculptures and paintings. The garden area seemed like a central park idea. In the building. We weren't allowed to take anything but our notebooks and bodies, so unfortunately no cameras. We only had 2 hrs, and we had to be escorted out pretty much, we could have spent 2hrs per room, and there were a ton of rooms, each with bunches paintings and sculptures all with unique stories. My favorite was an sculpture of David right before he was to fight goliath. After the bourghese, we made a very proud walk back to the piazza novina to get our favorite gelato, then the plan was to find McDonald's and a few tourist shops, we couldn't find McDonald's...so we ended up at a Chinese restaurant across from our apartment. If was really good, u could taste the freshness if the chicken. Then we came home and did laundry, no we sleep. Ciao
