GUTTA CAVAT LAPIDEM

End of Week 2

Salvete omnes,

It has been an energetic end to the second week of academy. We started off the day as normal with breakfast and classes. Then we proceeded to have some work time. As per usual, we also participated in play practice or video editing for memoranda. However, after that, we started working on Convivium (Roman dinner party). Tonight we had the Roman dinner, and in true Roman fashion, there was entertainment to go with it. Each province had time to create table decorations and a little something to perform in front of the others. These magnificent entertainment pieces ranged from a gladiatorial reenactment to a joke showdown. Of course our Roman dinner would not be complete without our Roman garb in addition to the entertainment. After dinner, all of us here got some time to unwind. We gathered for some karaoke and games before bed.

Thank you for sharing the pictures and the stories. I am sure Convivium was a lot of fun.
