Today we left Lucignano for Roma. The kids and I took one last dip in the pool in the morning. The kids are starting to show cracks in their armor, I think they are a little homesick, are a little tiered of traveling, and would like to get back to some semblance of a routine.

We said our good-byes to Massimo, and Luigi, our hosts. We also parted ways with the lady at the pastry shop, we became close, as we should have we saw her everyday. Finally to Uncle Don and Terri. I know Uncle Don has been wanting to go on this trip for ten years. I hope he had as much fun as we did. This was a special trip for all of us and I don't know if I will ever be on another like it.
Beckett and Janelle took the train down, no room in the car. Beck loves trains and time alone with his mom, so it was a win win for him. Mom, Iris, Lydia, and I drove down. We may or may not have stopped at an outlet mall on the way.
I heard all these horror stories about how crazy the drivers are in Roma. The drivers were no worse than Milano, but by now I am use to Italian diving. The most difficult and infuriating part about driving in Roma is the one way streets that change direction every block or two. You're driving down a one way street the all of a sudden you have to turn because of the oncoming traffic. Thanks to Iris, Google maps, and a few kind Romans we managed to drop off the trusty little Peugeot, I drove for 5000 km all over central Italia.
Tiered of Italian food we found a Chinese place for dinner. Aperently we weren't to only Americans craving food from another culture, the place was full of our countrymen. We saw one thing before turning it in, the Trevi Fountain. The piazza were the fountain is was not just busy, but no-personal-space packed with tourists. In spite of that it is a beautiful sight at night with the horses seemingly coming out of the water. The only special effects being some well carved stone, water, and lights. Iris has the pictures so she will add them later.
