Final Roman Adventures

We are leaving Rome soon and taking the train north to Florence. The last few days in Rome have been really busy. We've been visiting both historic buildings and some more contemporary buildings.

One our last nights in Rome, I was working in the lobby, and my roommates came back. Having only one key to our room, I walked up with them so I could return to the lobby and keep working while they went to bed. After I had walked back down to the lobby, I noticed the lobby door was locked. This wouldn't have been a problem except you had to walk outside the building and through another exterior door to get to the lobby. Not only was I locked out of the lobby, but I was also locked out of the hotel, because you had to be buzzed in. A little freaked out standing on a street in Rome in the middle of the night, I decided to wait, and hope that someone came back. As I sat there and waited, I heard a knock. I turned around, and one of the girls in the program was inside the lobby locked in, with no other way out of the building. We both just started laughing. About 5 minutes later the guy returned and unlocked the door for us.

As a side note Wifi is pronounced WeeFee in Italy.
