The past week was our spring break. Colleen, her friend Brittany from home, and I traveled to Rome, London, and Paris. This week was full of some very high highs and one extreme low. But before I get ahead of myself, let me fill you in on each place separately.
On Thursday night after classes, Colleen and I took the train from Orvieto to Rome and met up with Brittany at the hotel we were staying at. Colleen and Brittany were so excited to reunite- they SCREAMED when they first saw each other! We all knew spring break was going to be great from that moment on. Since Brittany had just flown in from the U.S. we didn’t do much the first night except go see the Colosseum (which was very close to where we were staying), indulge ourselves with some gelato, and ended the night by going to a cute, but empty, bar.
The next day was when we did the major sightseeing including the Trevi Fountain, Spanish Steps, and walking around the shopping district. That night we were planning on going to a club called Mood, but it was closed so we made a last minute decision to try out another club called Gilda. Wow. This place was insane! First, the bouncer who let us in turned out to be from Redondo Beach- what a small world. Once we were inside we went straight to the dance floor and danced the night away. It was so much fun because they were playing a ton of American music that we loved and were able to dance to. We had so much fun that we were the last people in the club! I’m dead serious. The bouncers came up to us and told us to get out because it was a few minutes past 5:00 am and that’s when the club closed. As soon as we got home we took a little nap and woke early to catch our flight to London. That night in Rome was one of my favorite nights of Spring Break. I can’t wait to go back to Gilda.
