After a long day of travel - I'm fucking here (here being Rome)! The apartment is great (pictures to follow) and we have a nice view from the balcony. I've already had my first piece of Italian pizza - they don't screw around here, it gets weighed out by the lb. Walked around the city a bit with a few of my roommates - so far, all 5 of us in the apartment of Univ. of Md. guys. I haven't met the two other guys, they've been asleep since I came in. A few early observations: it's going to be tough to run around the streets, not impossible, just a bit difficult. The school is about 20-25 mins. walk from the apartment, so we may have to bus ourselves over (I'm going to try to walk once I figure out how exactly to do that). We will be heading over there tomorrow to register for our permits to stay. There's a possibility that we'll head over to the school tonight for a little walking tour of where to go and shop and all that - but it may be held tomorrow night as well, so that might be the better night considering how jet-lagged everyone is. That's really it for now...enjoy the brief apartment tour!

In Rome!
