<h1> Mission: Rome Selection Menu </h1>
<details><summary><b>[PROTOCOL] Destination Intel</b></summary>
<p><b>Mission Window:</b> 06/02/2026 to 09/02/2026</p>
<p><b>Climate Conditions:</b> Expect cool, early spring weather in Rome. Average temperatures range from 4°C to 13°C (39°F to 55°F). Pack layers, including a waterproof jacket, as rain is possible. This is the low season, meaning fewer crowds at major sites.</p>
<p><b>Logistics:</b> Rome is highly walkable, but its public transport system (metro, buses, trams) is efficient for covering larger distances. The main international airport is Fiumicino (FCO), with Ciampino (CIA) serving budget airlines. From FCO, the Leonardo Express train is the fastest way to the city center (Termini Station).</p>
