The first out of three days in Rome was completely overwhelming. It was beautiful and fun, but overwhelming. Our guide told us on average there are 4 million people in Rome at any given time. Add on 90 degree weather and it was just a lot to take in. It was hard to enjoy all of the beautiful things we were seeing because all I could focus on were the thousands of people crowded around me looking at the same things. BUT when I did ignore the crowds around me, what I was seeing was amazing.
Thankfully our hotel was a little out of the ways from all of the tourist attractions so we had a chance to get a quiet dinner and go to sleep early, a thing that was not received much this first week in Italy, I would say it was well worth it though.
Aside from all the people, the heat, and the exhaustion, Rome is gorgeous and I am so thankful I got to see the landmarks of the city I have read about for years.
