Stansted Espresso

Woo hoooh – we’re flying to Rome in the morning. We are getting picked up by the cab at *3:45am*. I hope the 4:30 Stansted Express isn’t delayed (like the rest of the London rail network regularly is) and we make our flight. I have to confess that I am a little nervous about missing the plane.

The really crazy thing is that the train trip to the airport costs us more than the trip to the Rome! Such is life. I have been reading a little about the sights in Rome, and as we only have two full days of exploring we are going to be busy kiwis. Still, I’m hoping that by taking part in the crazy ritual at the Trevi Fountain we will one day return to the eternal city for a longer period.
