all roads lead to rome so the saying goes.
but i have to admit it was a bit of a u turn to come back down from prague to et to here.
ive had a blast.
loads of history .. layors upon layers oif this and that all burried beneath some crazy arse stories.
been to the vatican, and saw the pope. so i mean thatwas nice. waved to me and all of that, said dio carne and proko. and mahkeo.
.....or maybe notl
had to have tours to actaully undertand what i am seeing here because otherwise its like, oh, thats a nice ruin, im glad i was that.
but actually it could be like the grave to the orginal saint peter (or in otherwords the pope preety much) and no every pope since has lived basically ontop of his grave in vatican city.
coleseum and learnt about the gladiators. i never knew for instace that the guys shooting from the chariot and horse with a bow were all blinded by helmet so they couln't see. amonst ten thousnad other crzy facts. too much history to write down.. look it up.
went on a pub crawl the first night and learnt my lesson. open bar for an hour so i decided to drink them out of vodka until the bar tender said that he was lcearly so impressed that he would not serve me anymore.... so not really an open bar in my eyes.
mad heaps of freinds in the hostel, this internet is free because of it but i will be relativly breif so as not to use up my friendship..
drining a bottle of bailieys to pass the time tonight, not after another big night lol. after so much beer in bavaria there is almost no point in even trying to get tipsy. we can thankfranz for that and his endless baseement full of beer.
we are going to florence tommorow and will try to make a day trip to pisa (ther isn't much else there by all accounts) and then the following day make a trip up to venice, other then a cadlenight dinner and a night of woeing andy and the ladies supposedly there isn't much there either. but we will see . most likly two nights theere and then head accross to the french riverina. from there monaco, nice and marsell or however u speel it. from there down to barcenlona and then accross through madrid to lisbon, then a plae to paris and then train again to amsterdadm, we will have run out of our train pass then as we did not forsee that we would be making lots of little day trips that effectivly waste a whole day worth on the pass, we should have got an umlimited one for the 150 extra. i was like, we arnt going to more then 15 countries... we won't need it... wrong.
any who,, hope u guys are having fun, know that i am and staying safe..
