So Today was the first day of the meeting.
as a result, i did very little apart from meet.
the FAO building does have an impressive view over Rome from the rooftop cafe, but that's about the limit to the excitement there for me.
i did take a photo looking down the staircase at the hotel from the third floor.

tonight, after the meeting i went for a walk to the Colosseum. it is big. and broken.
 |
| Colosseum and an arch in front |
 |
| Apparently its called The Arch of Constantine. |

 |
| The most famous bit of the Colosseum is the broken bit. |
After the Colosseum, i walked a little further, past some shops and the Roman Forum (which like most things here is hidden behind a solid fence, and an expensive ticket after a wait in queue).
I did find some more free stuff, but once again, it was old and broken. they really should start fixing stuff around this place…it looks untidy.
 |
| Broken stuff on the side of the road. |
 |
| dont know what its called, but it was literally right beside the road. weird. |
Then after that i went back to my hotel, via a Gelato Shop, and a pizza place for a Calzone. and yes i did eat in that order. mmmmmm.
