As soon as I realised that Wales were playing away against Italy I was keen to go to the game. We flew down after work on Friday and were already amazed by how many Welsh people had travelled over.
The match was the Olimpico stadium which was really impressive. The game was so exciting and the atmosphere was brilliant. There was just a complete sea of red, and for the rest of the day we kept seeing daffodils and dragons everywhere. It was amazing! I have never seen that amount of Welsh people outside of Wales. We were told that 30,000 had travelled to Rome for the game! The marathon was the next day too so the city was busy, but I am not sure how many rugby supporters would have also gone for the marathon that weekend...three games of rugby to watch was enough!
