Chill weekend

 Europe » Italy » Tuscany » Arezzo
Here I am, fairly settled in and all that good stuff. Friday was the first day of our long weekend, we decided not to go anywhere cause it was our first weekend and it would be good to get out barrings and get all comfortable in our new italian town. A couple of people went to Rome, some more went to Perugia and some went to Sienna. There is a town about an hour long bus ride away that apparentley has good shopping that a couple people went to the other day. I was debating it but decided that I should [View Full Entry]

Went to bed really early because we were still jet legged! Monday: last day in rome, went to the grocery store bought some sandwiches and some Amazing capacinos and they're only like $1.50, soooooooooooo good. Anyways we took the metro with all our gigantic luggage to the train station and hoped on the bus with the rest of the crew to go [View Full Entry]

It was really hard to take a good picture, its fairly large!
So! What happened today? I woke up at 5:00 am cause I went to bed at 8pm and I couldn't get back to sleep. I think that is what you call jet leg. Now I'm really feeling it and I want to go to bed oh soo very bad but I'm trying to stay up so that I can get in synch with the Italian clocks. Our hot water tank wasn't on all yesterday and today and after some savage investigating I emailed the owners and didn't get a response last night or this morning so we all took some FREEZING [View Full Entry]

Rome

 Europe » Italy » Lazio » Rome
So, got into Rome today. Had a little scare with our flights this morning. I got a frantic call from one of the other girls telling me that our flight had been delayed and that we wouldn't make our connecting flight if we didn't get it switched. Definatley had a heart attack but it all worked out ok and ryan and I got bumped up to business class. It was pretty swanky, just a lot more room and a free meal and alcohol which I thought was probabley a good idea to avoid. We got to toronto, I has a croissant [View Full Entry]
