So my friend and I sat down and came up with an intinerary for the trip. We also decided that it would probably be better to start in London instead of immediately connecting to Rome. If we start in London we can take a train to see my relatives when we arrive and get over our jetlag at their house in a town 2 hours outside of London. Stay with them for two days and then start the real sightseeing and all that stuff. So here's the mini itinerary we started:
