Sam Comes to Rome

Sorry I have been MIA but I just finished up with my midterms.  My wonderful highschool friend Sam came to visit me for the weekend. It was so awesome to see her, we had a blast wandering around Rome. She is super creative and has her own blog attached to her online store so she blogged about our adventures. I am going to copy and paste her link http://fluffyland.com/blog/ so that you guys can read about what we did if you like (it involves many cool churches and a crazy crypt!). She also is really into photography so she took a lot of cool pictures with her super awesome camera!

Here are some quick highlights of our shenanigans:

1. Awesome bead store with handmade ceramic and glass beads
2. Yummy sandwiches in the Emperor's palace park
3. Play ground with a creep asking us whether or not we had babies and what we were doing at a playground
4. Another creep from Nigeria that we decided to joke with, Sam convinced him she was German and I convinced him I was italian- since I do not speak German and Sam does not speak Italian he was very confused and left quite perturbed.
5. Awesome pastries from multiple bakeries!
6. Mass at the little church near my apartment- they gave us a paper to follow along with and so we got to sing!
7. Taking illegal pictures of the underground artifacts in both the crypt and the layer church! Enjoy

Its nice to have friends that you know will always be there for you, no matter how much time goes by. I am blessed to have such wonderful friends in my life.
