Giorno ottantuno

...began with St. Peter's Basilica, the largest Christian church in the world, capable of holding 60,000 people, and the place where the Pope himself speaks to the church.

Then began the most hectic and stressful journey back to France. Running through Rome for 6 miles due to total closure of the train stations, running to the hostel, running to the shuttle, missing the shuttle, waiting for the next shuttle, taking the shuttle to the airport, waiting for the flight, taking off, turning the plane around 30 minutes in, due to technical problems, taking off again, landing, taking the shuttle to the metro, taking the metro to the RER, taking the RER to le Pecq, and walking home. A.d.v.e.n.t.u.r.e.But worth every second.

The biggest surprise of all, was leaving the warm weather and landing in Paris, covered in snow! But it was wonderful all the same.

Ti amo, Italy. Grazie tanto for an incredible week.

A demain,
