ROMA!!!!!!!!!!Ahhhhhh

Wow Rome is nothing like London or NZ or anywhere - London has a very organised transport system...rome does not! We arrived in Rome at 7.30pm just before dark - sorted out train fares to our accommodation and set off - before long it was dark. We did what we thought were the right things changed trains  - got off at the correct stop and then started to walk to our accommodation. However it never appeared. We reassessed and said a few prayers and found our out way - catching another train...the last train of the night which we did not pay for and sprinted to, thankfully we both have straps for our packs to sprint down the 2 flights of stairs. We then got off at our correct station where we needed to catch a bus, I was a little stressed as we were in the suburbs of Rome and the streets were full of life - we went for the Taxi option, the best 8 euro we ever spent- We arrived safely at our camp group to find our bungalow waiting for us. Thankfully the camp ground has a resturant open late so we could get some tea.
