Where in the world is bus 62?

So tonight we had some transportation issues, I'm not gonna lie. Well, they weren't really our fault. We went to dinner, and then to see St. Peter's at night, because I decided that's pretty much the coolest thing in Rome last time I was here, and I wanted to make sure Kalee and Sandy could see it so they could judge for themselves. Anyway...

We left St. Peter's a little after 10:00. The Metro was supposed to be open until 11:00. Who knew they would close early? We sure didn't, but out stop was closed at 10:10. Well, we walked to the next stop, just to make sure there wasn't anything wrong with that particular station. Turns out that stop was closed too. Shocking.

Soooo, we knew that bus 62 stopped near our hostel. I happened to remember that bus 62 also stopped close to the hotel that we stayed in two years ago, so we decided to just go to that stop, since that was our best bet. Well, either I don't remember thing correctly, or the stops have changed in the past 2 years. Since we'd only been here 3 hours, we didn't really know what else was in the area of our hostel, so we couldn't just hop on a bus to take it somewhere else. Luckily for us, as we were pulling out the map do to some major sleuthing, a cab drove by. So, it's true. We took a cab home. I know, I know, it's the easy way out, but we've been today we already toured Florence, took a train from Florence here, AND found our hostel. We're tired! Our cab driver was driving like a maniac, but hey, what else is new really? We made it back here safe and sound and are now just waiting for people to rotate through the bathroom. 10 girls and 1 bathroom is NOT a good idea!

The next two days are going to be jam-packed full of sights (and gelato), so I'm sure it'll be super exhausting, but totally worth it!
