Europe Trip 2008

Leaving Switzerland

Hi all, finally got to a computer to add a little to the blog.

Left Switzerland and made our way to a small town in the Italian Northern lakes called Arona.  Had planned a lake cruise to see some of the Islands on the lake however the weather turned nasty and we were held hostage in the town eating pastries & gelatii!..Damn the rain!.

 

Arona

 

 

After 2 nights we left for the small village of Monteresso on the Medireanian coast. Spectacular!..5 villages all within a stones throw of each other built into the cliff face..Got some great pics to show you all when we return..More Gelati & pasteries…..

Monterosso

Left for Rome yesterday via Pisa. Had a couple of hours looking around, under,up & over the tower…was unsure if I would be impressed but was. Is a corny tourist trap but cant take away the presence of the tower itself & surrounding buildings..

 

Pisa

Left Pisa at 3.00pm for a 3 hour train ride to Rome, got into Rome at about 7.30pm..A train ride from hell but thats another story.

Hope it wont be as long until the next update!..cheers until then.

Am also having trouble adding pics here..will try again tomorrow
