Agenda for Day 02, 05-19-15

Dear Writers of Rome,

Thank you for a splendid first day. I think I speak for Prof. Spinner when I say that we are very pleased with how things went, and we hope you have a sense of how Reading Rome has given you a context to appreciate the many things the city has to offer.

As noted, tomorrow morning you are on your own to either plan your site reports or make a solo excursion. As you know by now, the list of excursions is both on the Writing page of our website and in the libretto (little book) of site reports.

We'll meet at 1:00 p.m. (13:00) sharp outside the Colosseum Metro stop. Remember that the stop is on the Blue Line (Line B); so you need to take the Red Line (Line A) at Lepanto and transfer at Termini. Be sure, when you transfer, that you're heading in the right direction: to get to the Colosseum, follow the signs for Laurentina (the southern end of the line).

Also be sure to have your must-bring gear, including your audio equipment. And be dressed appropriately for the Basilica of Santa Maria in Ara Coeli. And if anyone runs across that extra set of batteries, let us know.
