I woke up to my mom breathing very, very, very, loudly(aka snoring) so I got dressed and ready for the day. We were going on the subways so we ate and then  went on the subway until Roma Termini and then we switched onto line B so we could go to the Colosseum. Once we got to the Colosseum we had to wait for about 2:00 and when we got to the ticket box we purchased our tickets and went through security. After we went though security we went into the Colosseum we got audio tours around the Colosseum so we didn’t have to be in a tour group. We first went out to the arena and watched the video. After we watched some videos about the Colosseum we all went to the spot where the gladiators fought. Most of the gladiator were captured soldiers from when the Romans faught other empires and they might have been forced to kill their friends! If the crowd pointed their thumbs up and shouted save the losing person they would save him. If it was vice versa they would kill him. To make sure that someone was dead they would put a burning hot iron on him. If he was dead they would drag him out of the arena. After we got out of the arena we bought a Colosseum stone statue. After we went out of the Colosseum we walked up to the Aventine hill to look though the keyhole in the door. After we finished that we went to Piazza Navona, the Pantheon and Trevi Fountain and I threw a quarter in. After we stopped at all of that stuff we went out for pizza and I had a hotdog and fries pizza again. After our pizza we headed off to the metro and on the way we found a gluten free gelato shop and I got green apple and berry! My gelato tasted so good I  wanted to get 8 scoops of it! After we ate our gelato we went back to the metro station and took it back home. After we got home we went to sleep.

We woke up and got dressed and packed for our day of leaving Italy. We atee our breakfast, which was the usal yougert and cereal. After we ate we went to a bakery to get some bread for my friends. After we got bread we went back to our apartment to get our lugage. After we got our luggage outside we went to the metro station so we could catch the train to the airport. After we got to the airport we dropped off our big suitcase and went though security. Our food bag triggered the staff again because we had 4 butter knives in it. After we got out of that mess we went to our gate and waited until our plane was redy for boarding. It finally let us on and we took off. The flight took about 10 hours, and I was able to finish the angry birds world tour! I also met my friend named Mack from a sports camp at the  U of A in Edmonton! After we got off the plane we went to retrieve our suitcases.
