Pizza and Pasta

Saturday, we woke up and walked to Villa Borghese (a huge park in Rome about an hour walk away). It started drizzling just as we got there though, so we decided to stop and have some amazing pizza in Piazza del Popolo.


It was pouring by the time we were done, so we found H&M (!!) and did our first European shopping. On the way home, we stopped at San Crispino, which we'd heard is the best gelato in Rome and is actually the gelato she eats in Eat, Pray, Love (aka Mangia, Prega, Ama)! We had been looking for it for a couple days, and actually stumbled upon it the night before while we were running away from a mime that was chasing us at the Pantheon, haha... just another normal Italian happening.


We stopped at Despar on the way home, and made pasta and bruschetta for dinner.. the first meal I've actually cooked here!
