Super Bowl Sunday

   This is the first time in years I won't be watching the Super Bowl. I think the only other time I've missed it is when I was in Australia back in 2001. So, how does one American expat spend Super Bowl Sunday here in Rome? By going to a museum. I'm trading my wing dip and guacamole for images of Monet and Van Gogh.
   I met up with a couple friends at the Galeria Nazionale Roma. We spent a good two hours walking around. We saw paintings, sculptures and even a death star. We had fun interpreting some of the more "interesting" pieces...I swear one piece was made of bubble gum.
  While it was a good afternoon, a part of me wishes I was hanging out in my friends' kitchen cheering on the Broncos with my people. I'm there in spirit.....GO BRONCOS! (For you Lizzy!)
