This morning we continued our adventures into modern Italy by boarding the train in Chiusi with second class tickets to Rome. Ever since we began eating peccorino three times a day (or more) we've been wondering where the sheep that produced the cheese lived. Now we know: Italians appear to keep most of their sheep, goats, and chickens...down by the railroad tracks!Arriving in the big city we caught the Metro to our B&B near Vatican City. Janna, Spring, Liz and David then boarded a crosstown bus for a euro and rode in rush hour traffic over to the Trevi Fountain area to pick up tickets for the Papal Audience tomorrow. On the way we discovered two interesting women from Colorado who were also going. One of them was 86 years old and thought she was in Tucsan. Rome is VERY intense after our peaceful sojourn in the Tuscan countryside!
