Well, I survived Hydromania. I don't have anything to compare it to, since the last time I went to any kind of amusement park I was in the 8th grade. The nieces approved of it, though. Lots of waterslides; several swimming pools; many other zie (aunts) handing out sandwiches, snacks, towels and wishing they were someplace else.
The trip from Piazza della Repubblica on the A line metro, then connecting to the 906 bus at Valle Aurelia took about an hour, 1 bus/metro ticket. At the Aurelia stop take the exit on your right, take the path to the right, and you'll see the little kiosk for the 906. I just asked the bus driver for the correct stop (I never imagined I'd be asking a Roman bus driver "La fermata per Hydromania?"). You can see the place from the bus- there's a huge tower right in front of you. The return bus stop is directly across the street from where you're dropped off.
We got home a little while ago. I'll call you tomorrow- I could use a drink and some adult conversation in English sometime this week.
Fiorentina just got promoted to Serie A; from the sound of blaring car horns and the party starting in Piazza P. Vettori, just below my bedroom window, I don't think I'm going to get much sleep tonight!
