Yes - we are alive

Wed, 10 Sep 2008 | By the_koetsys | Views [420]

I am actually writing this on Thursday 18 September. We have had enormous problems locating appropriate internet sites to do any postings - we didn't get the time to post anything about Pompei and the day at Pisa was so long that we didn't get an opportunity ... Read more >

The small leaning building at Pisa

Tue, 9 Sep 2008 | By the_koetsys | Views [630] | Comments [3]

The slow train trip to Pisa was just what we needed after the frenetic touring and travelling and inspection of ruins and old buildings. We even had the opportunity to read a book. After some 4 hours or more, we arrived at our destination. Melanie ... Read more >

Let Them Eat Cake: When Farm Stays Spoil

Mon, 8 Sep 2008 | By alysandjess | Views [1221]

In an effort to not spend money, do something productive, and learn about organic food processes, Jess and I had planned to work on a farm in Italy for the last bit of our trip. For me, that was 2 weeks and Jess was planning on dividing up her time between ... Read more >

A day at Pompei

After the quick fire bus tour, it was time for some relaxation. Andrew met us at the bus stop in Roma after we travelled into the city from the Sheraton at the airport and from there we travelled to meet Melanie & Chelsea at Termini as they had ... Read more >

Is it a bird? Is it a plane? No - it's a bullet bus.......

Sat, 6 Sep 2008 | By the_koetsys | Views [607] | Comments [2]

Rather than attempt to describe each day of our bus tour, a summary of the entire trip seems more appropriate, primarily because the days tended to merge into each other. However, some events will be mentioned as they were memorable or worth mentioning.... Read more >

Hungover in Bologna

Fri, 5 Sep 2008 | By mel_mel | Views [753]

Well, I am bloody tired still. After our adventures in Venice we could not wait to get back into bed. So bloody well worth it though! Anyway, after saying a nearly teary goodbye to Sara and others, we boarded a regional train to Bologna. We couldn’t ... Read more >

Viva la vida Venezia!!

Fri, 5 Sep 2008 | By mel_mel | Views [643] | Comments [3]

Once upon a time in a land far, far away (donkey), there was a beautiful town that sat on water. Indeed, instead of roads and cars, the main transport aside from walking the narrow laneways between the buildings was on the canals in gondolas. Now, ... Read more >

ormai Settembre,tornati a casa con la mente ancora sulla 5avenue,gli spazi qui infinitamente piu' piccoli,la nostra Italietta che arranca nei suoi soliti problemi(senza fare i soliti italiani esterofili pero')e la nostalgia del profumo del French Vanilla ... Read more >

Return to Firenze

Tue, 2 Sep 2008 | By mel_mel | Views [623] | Comments [2]

You are so incredibly lucky that Chelsea sleeps on the train and consequently I have time to update my journal so frequently! The poor little girl is so tuckered out from walking around the beauty that is Italia (and likely her little bug). ... Read more >

TRAVEL NOTES - Hydromania

Tue, 2 Sep 2008 | By matt_and_mercaders | Views [2986] | Comments [5]

This story is dedicated to Terry Summerbell. 5 nights in Rome is quite a while so we thought a day at the local waterpark might be fun. Travelling is about doing stuff,we were told, rather than simply seeing stuff. So we set off on our journey - i´d ... Read more >

Roma with the Chopmeister

Mon, 1 Sep 2008 | By mel_mel | Views [708] | Comments [4]

I certainly have a nice feeling of contentment right about now. After a teary reunion at the beautiful *cough* Termini station on Saturday with the fam, I’ve spent a full day in Rome with them (kinda). It was so great to see them – you don’t realise ... Read more >

Roma!

Mon, 1 Sep 2008 | By matt_and_mercaders | Views [755]

Our arrival in Rome saw what we have come to call 'first day syndrome'(see travel notes). The hostel appeared pretty ropey, especially the caged 'elevator', the design of which one can only assume was based on the set of some terrifying horror movie! ... Read more >

Slow train to Roma

Sat, 30 Aug 2008 | By the_koetsys | Views [586]

We waited at the Paris Bercy station for two hours as we had been able to get to the bus we needed a little earlier than expected. Unfortunately, there were no staff to be found at the station, so we had no idea what we were to do in terms of ... Read more >
