Yo. . . I'm in Italy in an internet cafe and I was thinking about what I should do when noone was online and then I remember this old thing. Its 22:19 here or 10:19, which means its 4:19 there. I am in Rome now and tomorrow we are going to Florence and on to Venice. Sorry if I type the wrong keys because this keyboard is semi different. The apostrophe question mark etc is in the wrong place.
Chokay so anyway, Italy is way cool man. We have been seeing the normal tourist attractions. Today we went to the Vatican city and saw the pope place and the Basilica of St. Peter which is a veryveryveryvery large and orante church from the renaisance time. You know, Michealangelo and all them. And we also went to the sistine chapel today and saw it up close and personal. It was wayyy crowded in that museam and you werent allowed to talk in the sistine chapel but then this LOUD intercom came on and screamed no talking in like 50 different languages and it took like 15 minutes. I thought that was ironic. The day before this we have been seering other thinghs such as the Colesseum, the Trevi Fountain (which is way cool by the by) the Roman Forum and other things of the like. Itàs cool that I can understand what everyone is saying when they just think that I am a clueless americano. I am the spy. Also, there are alot of designer stores around here which are very expensive. My brother saw the Ferrari store so of course we had to go on. But first, we had to wait in an hour line becasue they would only let about 20 people in at once. And then my brother got a tshirt because he had to after waiting that long.
Hmmmm what else to say.. . the plane ride here was way long. But all of the seats had this little cool tv where you can play games and wathc different movies. Then I was in Paris for a couple of hours which was interesting.
I wonder if my livejournal will say what time it is here on this entry. . Im sure it will the livejournal page was in italiano when I opened it.
Okkkkkayyy I am done for now. Seehya all and have fun whereever you may be.
P.S. Today I was in the hotel room and guess what was on TV? The Boston Marathon. . I watched it for awhile and recognized my good ol hometown.
PPS Ash we are taking lots of pics so you can see them. I took some pictures of nuns today because they were funny. I havent picked you up any rocks or water yet Ill have to remeber. Oh ya and Katty Ill get you some of those European twix and snickers that you like. And I shall get the rest of you a small something too. If all goes well.
Bubye for now, Erica
