Hi everyone! We have been in Italy for a few days now, we are enjoying it so far! We spent two days in Cinque Terre, a beautiful region of five villages on the west coast of Northern Italy. Everything there is really colourful and warm… we spent quite awhile on the beach!

When we left, we did a super-tour of other cities in Italy… hitting both Pisa and Florence on the way to Rome. Pisa wasn’t bad… the tower was cool (that was really the only reason we went XD) and Florence was very pretty as well… except all the major attractions cost a lot of money!!

But now we have found ourselves in Rome… we are staying in a nice little hotel here (a hotel which, ironically, the price per night is cheaper and the rooms are nicer than the hostel for a private room, so we thought… why not? We are kind of tired of people snoring all the time x___X)

Rome is really cool, but it’s so terribly chaotic! The best way to “find” your way around is to go “Let’s go THAT WAY” and keep walking until you hit something that looks old and big XD… either that or follow one of the tours, they generally know where they’re going. Today we saw a bunch of the big sites, but none of the Vatican or churches because they enforce a dress code of long pants and long-sleeved shirts and I didn’t want to die of heat exhaustian today… we’re going to do that tomorrow.

From here, we may go to Athens and a Greek Islands or further south in Italy before going to Athens… we’re not sure where the best flights are yet.

Does anyone know how to get one of those super cheap standby flight thingies…?

Miss you all…
