At Last!!

TIBBY'S ALMOST HERE!!!!!!!!!!

I can't believe she is currently on her way over to this part of the world and we can finally begin posting on here together!!!

I've already checked in to our nunnery/hostel and it's very nice - really spacious and cool and the lady who runs it is super friendly and welcoming! What a change from yesterday! Though I will say that my room last night (I had to book 2 different ones cuz everything was pretty full) was far better than the one before. Much cleaner and better-operating. I was still in a mixed dorm - two guys and three girls this time including me. They all were pretty nice except that early this morning the guy from Argentina had his alarm go off and it sounded as loud and as real as a siren. That was fun to wake up to at 5 in the morning! Also, after I had fallen back asleep, one of the other roomates - a girl from Russia - woke me up 2 hours later accusing me of stealing her hat. I pointed out that no, I did not, and that maybe her own hat was under her lumpy-looking jacket. It was. 

So, being fully awake by this point but knowing that I didn't have to check out until 10, I stayed in bed and watched the classic and wonderful movie, Roman Holiday, with Audrey Hepburn. 

It was just what I needed and it was so cool to see Princess Anne and Joe Bradley walking around in the city that was once so foreign but is now quite familiar to me!! So cool!!!!

Anyways, now I'm just trying to kill time and escape the heat (the lady who runs this place said today and tomorrow are supposed to be the hottest days of this year!!!!) all before I get to go meet my fellow junketeer at the train station!!!

Woo-hoo!!!!!!!
