Today we went to Ostia Antica (an old port city) to look at ruins, which is directly west from Rome, near the coast. We spent most of the day volunteering on an archaeological dig, which was fun and interesting. Pictures and thoughts on that tomorrow, because right now I feel like posting a video from sunday. Rome certainly doesn't look like cities we are used to in the U.S., but it doesn't sound like them either. Sitting in Campo dFiore on Sunday night, I let my auditory senses take the lead, appreciating the depth of space and protection of the piazza with only my ears. The sound of the guitar fills the entire hollow of the piazza, making you feel physically submerged. Listen for yourself, although it doesn't do any justice to being there.
