Those were the days

today was our last day in Rome and the last day of our epic test of friendship (we discussed and decided it is possible to spend 17 days with each other *most the time*). But tomorrow it's off to Edinburgh via Mallorca. What's sure to be a long day (but hopefully not stressful) day of travel.

We spent today with a good throwback to ancient Rome with a visit to the colosseum and the forum. Besides it being among the more mind-blowingly awesome days I've ever had, it was hot, sunny and all outside and on our feet.

But don't worry despite a leaky water bottle, we both stayed very hydrated and when we sat down for dinner it took us 2 hours to stand back up ;)
