We did absolutely nothing today and just relaxed in our hotel room, hahaha. Guess we're tired out from all the walking and being a tourist. Totally done with italian food, gelatos, cappucinos, and saying "bon giorno", "prego", "gratzie", "ciao", "nove" and "cuante". Tired of smart cars, scooters, old buildings, cobblestone streets, churches everywhere, and peddlers selling these freaky looking silly putty mr potato head things. Tired of watching cnn live (only english speaking tv), futbol on every single channel, bidets, no ironing board nor iron in our hotel rooms, no clocks, no. We are ready to go back home. I'm going to famous daves once I get back and have me some good ol american bbq. Get sloppy and ishhhh. Signing out here in italy.

I hate trains

Tuesday, October 30, 2007
Our train from venice to turin has a train change here in milan. Half an hour of downtime at the station and another couple more hours on the train. Another half hour of seeing the same tabacchi, same forexchange, same bar chef express, same farmacia ads, and same scam artists trying to act like they're employees and helping you with your baggage for 5 euros, for the last time. What's worse, we couldn't figure out which platform our train to turin is on cause the big screen kept it blank. We did hear some announcement about torino and just followed a storm of people to the right platform, so we assume. Hopefully we're on the right train as I type this blog and we did ask a couple of passengers if we're on the right train and they said yes, but I hope they're not saying that to fool us. Wish us luck.

Its called carnival. Its basically a history lesson about venice. Funny, cool effects with lighting and video, but it kinda dragged on too long. At least we got free food and champagne out of it. I feel cultured now, hahahaha. Holler!

Pretty cool though a lil bit expensive. 80 euros for 35 minutes but well worth it. Saw mozarts apt, some of the back canals, and went on the canal grande. Our driver is funny cause he kept serenading "chuck norris" to us, hahahaha.

Woke up today in our scary hotel room and took a cold shower cause there's no hot water. Then took a 30 minute (added after oscar's comment) bus ride to venice. Cars, scooters and trucks aren't allowed inside the city cause there's no roads, just the canals, so everyone parks in the same place near the main bus and train station. Surprisingly, the city is small. I think we can tour the whole city in a couple of days. We're gonna check out doge palace and basilica san marco today.

Longgggg train ride from naples to venice. It took about 8 hours and it pretty much sucked. Our hotel is about 30 minutes away from downtown. Mannnn, the place that we're staying at looks like the haunted house at disneyworld. Our room is freaking scary as hell cause its got 12 foot high ceiling, old victorian deco, and a staircase that leads to an empty bookshelf. Guess we're sleeping with the lights on tonight, hahahaha. Holler!

Buffalo bill burger at mcdonalds in naples

Saturday, October 27, 2007
We woke up this morning all late. We were supposed to wake up at 5am but ended up waking up at 7:40am. We missed the non reserved trains so we have to pay a 5 euro per person reservation fee for the next trains. Anyways, we took the jet boat from capri to naples this morning and surprisingly, the ride was less turbulent and less nauseatic than the first one we took a couple of days ago. We're now waiting for our train to venice and had to stock up on food since we probably wouldn't be able to eat til later tonight since its an 8 hour train ride. Ate a big ass burger which was ok and had some western fries, both of which not available in the us. Linh had a chicken sandwich and fries. Holler!

Awesome weather today. Didn't even have to wear a jacket for most of the day. We had some cappucino at faro punta carena, basically saw some big rocks and the water splashing on it, big lighthouse, and saw a man get carried out to sea but luckily was saved by a couple of guys on a small boat. On our way there, our bus got hit in the back by a guy in a scooter. Seems like his brakes went out on him or he wasn't paying any attention but he got knocked the fuck out, hahahaha.

We just checked in. The hydrofoil ride from naples to capri island SUCKS. Its like being stuck in real bad plane turbulence for 40 minutes. Almost got sick, but it was well worth it. This place is PARADISE. Hopefully we get some sunny warmer weather tomorrow.
