The airplane ride to Italy was extremely long, it was a total of 12 exhausting hours. When we arrived to Rome,Italy, the whole group was exhausted and we still had a long tour of the city. The next few days we stayed in Rome and we saw many sights such as the Colosseum and the Vaticans. It was really pretty just tiring and VERY packed. After Rome, we took a ferry to get to Greece. Greece was very pretty and less packed than Italy. The people in Greece were much nicer to us and the sights were breathtaking. After touring around Greece, we went on a cruise around Greek i
