We are back in Roma and today we have watched two catholic ceremonies, one at the Vatican and the other at the Pantheon. We haven't decided yet where we are going tomorrow but it will either be Tuscany or the French Riviera. This has been quite the summer so far. The best part about backpacking has been the people we have met. In Budapest we travelled with two dental students at U of T, in Verona we met some people from Portland, Oregon, and in Venice a law student from Brazil - each day has been a new adventure and we have travelled with people from everywhere - from South Africa to Portugal. I even met this guy who graduated from Queen's the same year I did! The strangest person I have met was on the boat at Greece. He jumped off the boat and dove into the sea, and when he emerged, he carried with him a bunch of sea urchins. He then proceeded to ravenously bite his way through the urchins and eat all of the brown mush inside. He offered some to me, but I passed. I have no desire to eat sea urchins. Ah, I wish I have had time to log the whole trip all on this computer. I have been writing my diary on the plan so I don't forget everything that has happened, but it is hard considering so much happens in one day.
