are we there yet?

may i just say, yesterday sucked in so many ways. missed trains, walking for literally miles.... anyway. I went to Pescara which is like a mix of king street and myrtle beach (that's the only way i can explain it).

Then took a train to Chieuti (this is where the walking came in) the train in Chieuti, isn't actually in Chieuti. I did make it there and got to see the home town of the Pintos (yay). I'll skip the drama of getting back to my hotel, but i did make it in one piece.

Today i left for Florence (where i am now) and i'll be here for a bit. I finally got some gelato yesterday and have enough pics of food i ate to be a hipster.

Day 2 (still written on day 2)

Think I walked a zillion miles. Slightly longer list today.
Circus Maximus
Santa Maria in Cosmedin
^ bocca della verita (bonus points if you get that one)
Arco do Giano

Trajan's column
Monumento a Vittorio Emanuelle II
(where I ate bread, stinky cheese & prosciutto)
Coliseum (didn't go in today)
Domus Aurea (also not inside)
Arco di Constantino

and chilled for a bit in the courtyard at my hostel
