italy

Category: Travels — lukerobi @ 10:36 am

Well im currently on a train from milano (italy) to vience (italy) and im being harassed by to asian toddelers. They keep moving my table, playing wiht my bag, hitting keys on my laptop, and a moment ago the guy was checking tickets… and the little bastards grabbed mine and ran with it down the train WTF… if they were my kids i would beat them. I am deffinatly for the beating of the children. Thank you mom and dad for teaching me some discipline.. I want to eject one of these little bastards out the window! But anyways… our overnight train was not too bad.. Aside from the fact the guy sleeping under me (4 to a room) sounded like a dump truck crashing into a pryamid of empty metal trash cans… seriosuly, i dont know how he didnt wake himself up he was snooring soooooo fucking loud. We got to milano and swaped trains (which is where i am now). Oh yeah! and i think i just had my first encounter with a pick pocket…. i felt a tug going up some stairs, and saw someone\s hand on my wallet chain. I do not know if it was an acident or not… seeing how my pocket was right next to the rail… but either way i turned around and gave him the ‘let go of that or ill kill you’ look… I didnt take alot of pictures in barcelona… I guess the longer i am here, the less interesting simple things seem, such as streets and arcitechure. Every thing is starting to look the same. These kids are swining off the arm rests right now…. I hope one of them falls…. Damn kids are out of control, and they wont listen to their father who is yelling in a language i cant understand.

Anyways… 14 nights left in europe… and i am not looking foward to my train ride from naples to paris… thats going to fucking suck… obviously no internet on a train, but im going to throw a rough guess of 20 hours… No wonder we dont use alot of train travel in the states… it sucks. The only nice thing about it is occasionally looking out the window at the countryside… seeing farm houses and small villages… Thats nice.

But im done typing for now…

Day 2 with no internet..

Just woke up after some needed rest, last night we walked around what appears to be a suburb of veince got some lasanga from a corner place…. it wasnt bad, but it was not great either…. i think camparis used to have better. Then we went to the grocery store to get some food to snack on while we were here and some drinks… u can buy a 1.5 litre bottle from the store for 1 euro… and then outside our room there is a machine that spits out 12 oz cans of lipton ice tea for 1.5 euros… which makes it really damn expensive. We are outside the city, so we need to catch a bus to get into town…. once there maybe we can do some cool stuff. anyways…. i still cant post this, so maybe i will just post 1 huge blog the first time i find the internet.

(later that day..)
We explored vience today… saw some cool stuff… still trying to think of things to buy you guys but anyways… time to get some rest!

Day 3…

Wow this is going to be some kind of long blog post… mainly because I did not have an internet connection from my laptop to make the post from… or upload pictures. Right now me and luke are headed towards some bed and breakfast place… This is going to be the ‘gayest’ part of the trip for us. We ran out of places to stay so we booked a b&b and i believe we have to share a bed. lol.. But the trains in italy have power plugs, which is very nice… means i can play games, or whatever i want on my laptop. Also the absence of out of control chinese kids is allways great too. I think i have about 20 minutes before we have to get off this train and get on the 1 to pisa… Its funny really… we are going to stay in pisa for 1 night, and we are really going there for a single reason… to see the leaning tower. After that, we are heading to rome. I just looked down and realised the date! I am going to be celebrating 4th of july in italy. lol Man I wish i was in england for that… i would wear american flag clothes and paint my face of something… damn red coat bastards!!!! I KEEEEL YOOOUUU!!! Naw… but really… i think their own punishment is their weather and food. But anywhom… Im going to start packing up my shit pretty soon and get ready to swap trains.

Now we are finally in our bed and breakfast place in pisa… its like someone’s house… haha … anyways, we have to get some stuff done here today since we are only here today!!!
