We packed our bags last night , had bfst in the dining room and we're off the ship at 9am. The shuttle took us into Civitavecchia where we noticed a bus transfer for 17 euros . This was much more appealing to us than the 25 min walk to the train station, trying to buy tickets and waiting for a train and then negotiating our luggage on a crowded train. Needless to say we jumped at this option. It meant we were dropped off in Rome at a different place but it was still only a 20 min walk to our accomodation and through Piazza Novena and campo for a as a bonus.. We arrived at about midday and settled into our room and had WIFI at last do spent the next hour catching up on emails, facebook and I skyped Jim.. In the afternoon we wandered around Trastevere and then got ready for our Rome Food Tour which began on Tibor island. We went to a restaurant for fried artichoke abd Prosecco, then a very old wine cellar for anti pasta and wine, then a biscuit maker and bread maker, then we sat down for 3 pasta dishes and finally gelati . This was a great thing to do in Trastevere.
