this is the ceiling of the outside before entering the cathedralSo, today we had to wake up at like 7am because we had to be on the 8:29 train to go to Rome. When we arrived in Rome we went into the cathedral of Rome, the seat of the bishop. It is absolutely beautiful. It is honestly one of the most beautiful places i have ever been into. I cant even describe the feeling that you get when you walk inside. I couldnt even believe that we were there!! So, story is that Constantine built this cathedral to give the christians a formal place to finally meet and worship. It is so gorgeous! It is built almost outside the walls of Rome, not in the center. There is a huge statue of Constantine in the front of the cathedral and there is the most beautiful mosaic painting in the apps.

We walked forever in the pouring rain to another church go figure it was closed. So we went to another church and then our class was

this is the statue of Constantine outside of the cathedral over. Mal and i decided to eat yet another sandwich of cheese and ham ( i dont know why they hate turkey, but you cant find turkey anywhere) and then we attempted to go home on the train. Of course we had drama at the train station yet again!! They dont tell you but instead of having all the trains lined up, you can also have trains that are behind the building not visible. You are just suppose to know that! Everyday we learn how to live in Italy better. then i exchanged my $65 dollars and got practically nothing in return!! ugh!! i hate the euro!! and we waited and waited and finally our train came! YAY!!! we finally made it to Frascati, we never got lost!! finally!!!
