Villa Borghese Pic Nic Lunch

This afternoon we went to Villa Borghese. The villa is where the Borghese family lived. The Borghese family was just like royalty. The villa is very beautiful, with lots of fruit trees, flowers, statues, and fountains.
On the way through a path we saw a bunch of carts. They had enough seats for nine people and pedals for six of the seats. I discovered that they had steering wheels for turning. One family that we saw had eight people, but not everyone was pedalling at the same sped so it looked as though they were going to crash. A few minutes later we saw them pushing the cart out of a ditch, which they had managed to get stuck in.
We started to get hungry and went to a cafe. It was called Pic Nic and had lots of snacky things to eat.

My grandma and mom got hamburgers, and Jocelyn and I got hotdogs with fries. When we looked around, we realized that the fries were actually deep fried potato chips. When our food came, I was over joyed to see that the hotdogs were actual hotdogs with actual hotdog buns!
See, usually when you ask for a hotdog, you get a sausage on a baguette. So obviously, when I saw the actual bun I almost stood up and danced.
When we were done eating, we payed and went to a fountain. The scenery around the fountain was gorgeous but the actual water in the pond was disgusting. There was garbage and sticks floating in it and it was a murky yellow. I drew a few pictures of Willow while we were there because I wasn't inspired by the fountain.
The villa was amazing and I would definitely go back and do more exploring, but sadly I can't until I'm older, because we are flying to Paris tomorrow at seven in the morning!
