Italy

ok teh internet here in the unbelievably gorgeous cinque terra is through the roof pricy so lets make this quick... its amazing, definetly one of the nicest places on earth... we laid on rocks today and bronzed our skin and tomorrow we are doing the five town hike... cinqua terra is five small cities that are connected on the coast of italy... amazing!!! we are having such a fun time with andrew.. he looks like a european and everyone talks to him in italian... its awesome... and we drank a little too much wine last night and sat on the beach with an english crowd....laura drank ummm a lot of wine and got a little sick!! but tons of fun... tonight we are going to some bar that overlooks the ocean.. i know im spoiled and lucky to see this .... be home soon!!!!

hello everyone... well we have arrived in milan and its actually a beautiful city, lots of things... and there duomo.. oh man, i thought florence had and unreal duomo but this one puts it to shame.. i dont know what it is with me and duomos but i love em... anyway we arrived from athens yesterday, the plane ride was kinda sketchy, easyjet is a first come first serve airplane which is really weird not being assigned a seat and all, but we managed good seats.. what i couldnt manage was the awful turbulence during the landing, i struggled keeping my guts in check while laura laughed at me..... but were here, on one of the trains we got talking to some american and he asked us if there were polar bears in regina!!!! haha.. the real sad thing is he is like a 40 year old lawyer who owns his own company in greece... how sad... i didnt know which answer to throw at him, either we have them as pets or they are a huge pest in our city... but we just laughed and shrugged off his nonsense... we meet up with mr. andrew salgado tommrowo in cinque terrra which supposedly is heaven on earth... i went and looked at pictures and it is beautiful.... i didnt think anything ccould be more beautiful thean santorini but this might do it.... anways you should all downlaod a song that has changed laura and my life... it is called ,stop! dementica!, by tiziano ferroa ... its so awesome!!!! anyways were out.. were both tired and looking forward to some sleep!!! i bought you some jewellry jen!!! ok .. lata skatas

well we have made it to napoli...home of ... a giant volcano, which blew its top off in the year 79 a.d. preserving the ruins of a small city called pompei.. which we had the pleasure of walking around today.... it was absolutely amazing, i guesss the ash of the volcano preserved this city in its original state for 1900 years until they excavated it ... pretty awesome stuff... naples has been a very worth while trip and we are off to bari tommorow to catch a ferry to patras where we will be training it to Athens to enjoy greece for a week and abit...... i have found a new favorite pasta, it is called gnochhi....wow.. we are just about to head out to find a pastissceria so i can get myself a huge plate of gnocchi... i am eating supper late today, it is 840 in the evening, but we had a very long day ... we met some crazy aussies who we partied with last night, and spent the day with today... also tagging along with us was some cool american who goes to harvard....and some super loser american, who thinks canada is full of shit... laura and i can both agree that this guy was the biggest prick ever.... but the day was awesome, i seriously think the volcano makes this city hotter... because it is so friggin hot out.... last night we played drinking games until the early hours then set out on a search for kebabs which are basically super pitas, greasy, yummy food... but we failed... we keep hearing greece is super cheap and is tons of fun, so we are both super excited... the ferry ride is 16 hours, and we only have deck seats...so its gonna be rough... but the ferry has a casino, theatre, bar, pool and all that so hopefully it makes the time fly by.... ill update this blog in greece...we wish everybody the best and hope everybody is enjoying their summer.... take care

hello all my loyal readers... (mom and dad....and lindsey)..ha...anyway, i find myself in an internet cafe just outside of the prima porta train station on my way to our campsite which is 1 mile north of here... there are some dark guys talkin in the phone booths yelling their faces of on the phone.. quite possibly a drug deal gone wrong, or maybe they are getting shit for selling fake louis vitton stuff, as well as dolce and gabbana....... anyways the campsite is unreal, for 11 euros we get free access to a pool, live entertainment every night, and a toga party every night... pretty awesome... except we sleep in a barn.... not so awesome.. at least it cools off at night...... can you believe that it was plus 40 today in roma... and right now as i speak at 9 oclock in the envening it is plus 33 and laura and i jus finished walking rome.... we saw the great vatican city first of all, it was awesome.. we went on a tour for 20 euros, we thought that this would be one place where it would be worth it to get a guide, and it worked out well... no lines , the british guide called them cues... i always thought of playing pool, because isnt that a cue????? hmm... st peters basillica was astounding, unfortunately laura got shut down at the door because her shorts were jus a little too short.... who wears short shorts... luara wears short shorts... ha.. we both got into the sistene chapel to see micheleangelos work, it was top notch stuff..... i always thought he laid on his bakc while he painted but turns out he stood with his neck bent up the entire time... 4 years to be exact.... 4 years of standing looking at a giant ceiling... tuff one.... but it was cool, i sure got a good history lesson today at the vatican city... then we strolled off to the colliseum and the roman ruins... its crazy to imagine this place 500 years ago.... pretty fascinating stuff.... as for tonight i am most likely to tie one on, buckets of beers are on sale at our resort .. .i mean campsite which feels liek a resort.... then lay beside the pool till 4 ish then we are off to tonys uncles restaurant for supper then to some fountain and gelato.... i wish you all could be here, cause it would rock... laura and i are having a blast, she is a barrel a laughs, and we both love this travelling gig.... almost 3 weeks done already.. wow..... i miss sports highlights, and hdtv... thats all for now.... we leave to naples on sunday, the place where they invented pizza, and som eof the best seafood in europe... cant wait..... then we off to greece!! which we are both very excited.... the food here in italy is definetly a step up from our shitty ass food in spain.... today i had lasagna for 5 euros... the bad news is the service fee 15% which is included plus a drink 3 euros... so it makes it sound like your getting a deal but you aint... your payin 10 euros no matter what... bullshit!!! ok... thanks for reading and ill update in naples...... hope your enjoying the weather in saskatchewan and at the lake!
