Trip to Todi
Today was an amazing day. We had to get up early and get onto the buses to head to Todi. Todi is a hill town in Umbria. The town was beautiful and the views were breathtaking. Todi is about two hours away from Rome. When we got there, we were given two and a half hours to walk around the city. James, Matt, and I walked around and saw the Catholic churches and all of the other sites in the town too. The churches were really cool inside. What is really cool though is that Matt and I found a different site that wasn’t on the map that they gave us. It was the old cisterns from the old Roman forum that was later built over the top of. I guess they had just recently found them and have been researching in after taking the water out of them. We got to go down into them for only two Euros. I also bought some olive oil and some spices there too.
After our two hours were up in Todi, we loaded the bus and drove to Titignano. This was a really cool old castle thingy. At Titignano, they had set up a really big dinner for us—one of those three and a half hours one that had a ton of courses. That was actually really cool and the food was excellent. We also had free unlimited wine there too. After dinner, the buses drove us back to Rome and I have just been hanging out in my room the rest of the night trying to get enough motivation to read for my classes tomorrow. However, there was no such luck with the reading and I am now going to bed and am just going to read tomorrow.
