Rome!!!
We made it!
Got here 6:30 last night, and met up with the girls at the hotel. Headed over to Piazza Navona to join the Home2Romers for the closing speeches. Ridiculous rain set in as we were halfway from hotel to P. Navona.
After a fairly shambolic set of speeches & awards we five said our goodbyes & went into the backstreets to find a restaurant that didn’t require a mortgage for beers!
- The Mad Hatters won 1st prize.
- Last & Furious Flaming Hot came 2nd.
- Beauty & the Beast won Best Banger / Best Bodge.
We celebrated our personal triumph (i.e. making it to Rome in one piece!) over dinner with a bottle of prosecco, opened by Captain Cubbin 
Lovely lie-in this morning, followed by a relaxed breakfast on the terrace. Making plans, taking our time, unwinding, etc…
Dave is flying home tonight, taking Giselle the Gazelle with him. They will both be missed x
Will go in search of wifi café today so I can upload some pics.
Glad to hear Giselle has made it in one piece – she’s a good girl isnt she. Well done you boys, and I am super envious of your fab trip. I wish I had been out in Roma with you last night celebrating!! (Did look into last minute flights yesterday morn but unfortunatly that too would have required taking out a mortgage).
Well done again, XXXXX
Well done guys – sounds like fantastic fun. Looking forward to hearing all the stories sometime soon. Jen & Dan xx
