Goodbye Paestum!
Our first night in our new apartment in Rome. We are separated into 4 apartments, 2 with 9 people each, one with 8 people, and one with 4 people. There are 9 in mine (Alex, Adam, John, Trevor, Amy, Lindsey, Lyndsey, Mary, and myself). We were supposed to be in this American-dorm style building full with 140 other American students, including the rest of our classmates, but the apartment we were supposed to move into had an enormous flood 2 days before our arrival, and everything was destroyed. So, to accommodate us, they put us in a different, residential building very close to the other apartments. So, for our first night, we all really needed to do laundry, we had been washing our clothes in sinks for about 4 weeks at this point. Amy was up first, she put her laundry in, and by accident the washing machine (which is in our kitchen), was opened- thinking the laundry was done, and all the water, and clothes and underwear dumped out, flooding the kitchen floor. Lindsey and I earlier that day happened to flood the bathroom in Paestum. We are surrounded by flooding issues.
