Italy
I have just returned from a long and exhausting day out in Italy. I was so inspired that I had to write a post, even if it does cost 4 euro/hour for this slow internet terminal at my camp site.
Italy! I love it. I guess I had no expectations and I came here with plans just to see what I bump into. After Florence (which I thouroughly enjoyed) we headed across to Rome. OMG Rome is awesome. Dirty and busy but amazing.
Have done a few of the touristy things...Colloseum...Trivi Fountain...Centre of Rome (where all roads lead to!)...Sistine Chapel...ruins ect. And they were all fantastic. Mind blowing even. We had a lovely alfresco dinner last night complete with Chainti (Italian red). Antipasti and ravioli...yum. There was an accordian duet as our background music and our little Italian feast would have not been complete without a generous serve of gelati.
The only thing missing was Nick :-(
It was seriously the best moment of my Contiki travels so far.
Everyone seems to be getting sick. One of our group is in ICU back in France! Long story, will save it for another time. But anyway I bought some mutivitamins today and I have not been going out every night like much of the group so hopefully it misses me. Other than being tired I am well.
We have a free day tomorrow, our first day to do absolutely nothing. I might sit by the pool. Tought life isnt it!
I miss you all terribly. My favourite tune this trip and the song I listen to nearly every morning and night...Home by Michael Buble. Listen to the words next time you hear it. It is precicly how I feel.
Love to you all xxxx

Heather! Lucas and I both loved Rome. We think it is probably one of the most romantic cities we have been to. The spanish steps at night was great fun, and the Trivi fountain was gorgeous.
Sistine Chaple is....WOW. ALl the artwork, and ornate designs. I can't believe it even exists!
Good to hear you are having fun.
Keep enjoying yourself, and stay healthy!
