Ruins of Pompeii Europe » Italy » Campania » Naples
Alright people, i got to see the ruins of pompeii which was really interesting. There were 4 casts and were pretty eerie because their arms were covering their faces and you could almost feel bad for them. Then we went to the Herculaneum which is further from Mt. Vesuvius so it was much more intacts and had tons of actual artifcats from 2000 years ago...really awesome. I took a bunch of pics so dont worry. Hmm...what else... we got some pizza and more gelato Ischia yesterday was really nice and i needed just a day to relax on the beach and [View Full Entry]

Dublin  Europe » Ireland » County Dublin
So I was able to hitch a ride from Doolin to Galway and I gave Armindo €10 because gas is around $4 gallon. Neither of us knew the area but it seemed to be near the city center so he pulled over and dropped me off on some corner. It was cool that he drove me because I got to see some of the Burren which I wouldnt have been able to see without doing a tour or renting a car or something. Plus it gave me someone to chill with, i'll be honest and say im just happy to be [View Full Entry]

Cont... Europe » Ireland » County Clare » Doolin
On Monday nights theres a bar called McDermotts that ha a group of 4 young guys from Ennis that come down and play some traditional Irish music so that was a great time. The music which nauseated me during St. patricks day at outback was a lot of fun in its proper setting. I had some guiness, smithwicks and a delicious bowl of real Irish Stew. I met 2 more Americans who were real laid back and had a good time hanging out with them for the night. This morning I woke up at 7:45am and rented (or hired) a bike [View Full Entry]

Well its been a couple days but i've decided to go onward and forward with my flight to Dubrovnik, i found a bunch other numbers to call for lodging. Let's see whats happened since my last entry... Well I got Fish and Chips again since its cheap, fills you up and is relatively good and found Ken chilling in the common room which he usually does and asked him if he wanted to go check out the Comedy Store, which he did. We went over around 6 but doors didnt open until 630 so we went to a small pub and [View Full Entry]

Im glad that so many people are checking out this site, unfortunately i dont have enough time to respond to everyone, sorry guys especially with issues arising in Dubrovnik where i may have to skip that flight and write off €64 which really sucks. I didnt think a Croatian hostel would be booked this far in advance, especially in April. Oh well... Well I went out with Ken and got some sushi for dinner which was decent and not too expensive, and then went out got a beer at Midas and then picked up a beer on the way to the [View Full Entry]

So last night not much was going on and honestly my legs were killing me from the walk to the Tower of London. I chilled in the common room with the Irish guy Ken and watched a couple movies until about 12:30am and got some Burger King, £4.55 or almost $9 for a chicken sandwich, quite the deal i must say. The burgers are dirt cheap but im not getting any ground beef here in the U.K. with the mad cow disease and all. Actually most people here seem to be staying away from it. I got up this morning around [View Full Entry]

Hey guys, Just so you know im pretty sure ive been getting all of your messages. Well the other night after I posted and went back to my room but since I hadn't met anyone it was a little lonely to be honest. So I went to a backpackers bar down the street called "The Midas Touch" I sat around for about 10 minutes and recognized some people from the hostel earlier that day so I jsut went over and asked if they minded if I joined them. Of course they didnt so we all hung out at the bar until [View Full Entry]

Well everyone i made it to London... Right now i'm sitting at the hostel internet cafe after taking a couple power naps since i only got to sleep a couple hours on the flight over since the seats were pretty uncomfortable. I got to Paris around 5:50am and had to transfer from terminal 2C to 2F. So I got packed onto the bus but when the door went to open at my stop is caught my foot in the door and the driver started yelling at me in French...so that was fun. The flight over to london was alright, quick, about [View Full Entry]
