Espresso and the Baths

May 15^th

Woke up this morning and had some espresso that we made in the Italian coffee maker. This thing that you put water in and coffee in and then you put it on the stove and it percolates the coffee and makes two little cups of espresso. It’s super strong, but pretty good. Franco told us that coffee is pretty cheep here and there are different prices for if you stand to if you sit, so I guess we are going to be doing some stand drinking J Later we went out to explore the city. We saw many ruins and a bath house that was surrounded in different color roses, lavender and jasmine. It smelled absolutely amazing. The sculptures were rather creepy however. I am sure back in their day they were good likenesses of the people they represented, but now they are all eroded and they looked like mummies. We walked and walked for hours and made it across most of Italy. We were surprised that we walked as far as we did and we were pretty tired by the end of the day. We came home and made an Italian dinner.
