For a rest day, we ended up doing a lot. Okay, maybe not a lot, but a lot for a rest day. I’m tired! How did that happen?? Stupid faux rest day. Slept in, had eggs, mushies and cado for brekkie – really needed a savoury breakfast. Those crazy Italians ... Read more >

Return to Siena

So up bright and early to head into Siena. And when I say bright and early, what I really mean is wake up, roll over and get up when we bloody well feel like it. We took the bus into the city centre (and got annoyed when we saw that it passed out the ... Read more >

This day sucked. This day sucked like no day has sucked before. Okay, it wasn’t quite that bad, but it definitely takes the title of suckiest day so far. In the morning we had to farewell Lanfranco and Marcella, and ... Read more >

I’m sitting in the private living/dining area of the beautiful B&B Tess and I have scored for our time here in Assisi. We had no idea that we would have what is essentially an apartment to ourselves. It is half of the downstairs ... Read more >

28 - 30 Italy

Thu, 30 Sep 2010 | By nomad_kiwis | Views [886]

It was a bit of a shock entering Italy. The architecture didn't change much at first and all the signs were in both German and Italian but one thing did change dramatically and that was the behaviour of the motorists... Obviously speed limits were ... Read more >

Coliseu

Esta foi a única filmagem que conseguimos fazer do Coliseu, já que no dia anterior, quando o visitamos, a bateria da máquina já tinha ido pro saco, depois de tantas fotos e filmagens no Vaticano. Já estávamos a caminho do aeroporto, que nos levaria ... Read more >

Descobrimos este monumento por acaso, quando o ônibus que nos levou ao Vaticano no dia anterior passou em frente. Achamos uma das coisas mais lindas que já vimos em nossas vidas (mais uma, Roma é cheio delas), e tratamos de visitá-la no dia seguinte.... Read more >
