Italy awaits and so does the end of the trip
I am going to utilize the free internet in our Nice hostel to write one more blog before we head to Italy this evening.
Nice was nice, it was great cause we got two days to beach and a bit of shopping in before we head to Venice, but the city itself is not so French Riviera. We met some Aussies and Lauren met the toilet when she had too much bad Sangria and beer. It was the first really drunken incident of the trip and good thing it happened in the comfort of our own hostel. We stayed in this hostel that had a villa feel which was in an old monestary on the hillside about the beach. It was pretty nifty, but for those of you who have seen the movie Hostel, it has some errie similarities. And for a time some events that occured were too familair to the movie, which fyi is based on a true story.
With eight more days left in the vacation I am looking forward to a good shower and my bed (which would afford me a good nights sleep). This has been an amazing trip, but it has worn on me a bit I must admit. I knew coming in to it that I wouuld need a vacation after my vacation, which unfortunately I am not going to get.
I have made my plans and I will be moving from Lawrence on July 3, so anyone around the area should stay turned for a huge going away bash time and date.
We will spend four days in Venice and the rest in Rome before coming home on the 19th. Everyone will have to see my pictures as I hope they are as good as I think they will be. Let me know what you are up to if you get a chance and I will try to keep the blog posted.
Miss everyone...
