First off, I apologize for my last entry - it definitely lacked the stories I should have added and was a bit boring. I will try to keep you all better entertained as our trip progresses.
So you know something is wrong when I pop up out of bed before Katie. Even though I was exhausted last night, I still found myself awake at one a.m. I guess that is just my true nature, with little to no sleep or not.
I would have to say that day #2 has already started off much better than day #1. We got more than a few hours of sleep AND were able to lay down while sleeping. Double bonus! Our room reminds me of summer camp (true summer camp, not Catchfly Cove). There are 10 beds in all and lockers to put away your stuff. We also have a curfew (3 a.m.) and community bathrooms. I bet my family would be shocked to hear this, but yes, I did shower in the community bath. Very quickly, but it did happen. There are separate stalls with curtains, but the window in the bathroom is kept wide open and all you can hear are loud Italian men right below it.
Today we are heading out to Vatican City. I think I have figured out the bus system better after doing some Rick Steeves studying last night, so that should save us some mileage if all goes as planned... which we have figured out already, is kind of pointless to have a "plan" when traveling somewhere for the first time. We are learning as we go along, but it is all part of the experience.
peace,
tracy

Glad to hear yall made it in okay and are already seein some good things!! Keep the posts coming!!
i forgot to comment earlier on this post- i indeed do not believe that you showered in a community shower. you must have worn your swimsuit in, or made them turn the lights off. if you can muster the guts to get nude in front of other people then what would be next- skinny dipping at catchfly cove?
