Katie's Italian Adventure: Snow in Rome!!!

So… there isn’t much new to report from this week. Wednesday we went on a walking tour of Rome in the pouring rain and freezing cold. It was pretty miserable. And we had a drawing due on Thursday, so I spent Wednesday afternoon and night at studio working on it. Then on Thursday we finished/presented our drawings and then we had drawing class.

Then today I had my Roman history walking tour and it SNOWED! It hasn’t snowed in Rome since 1996… so this was a pretty big deal. My history teacher even ended the walk early so that we could all go see our favorite Roman monument in the snow. We all headed over to the Pantheon to see the snow come through the oculus, but by the time we got there the snow had stopped. I got some pretty cool pictures on the way there, though! We also went to a church where we saw the skull of St. Valentine, so fitting for this weekend!
