Departing Italy
After spending three days in the North east of italy, Milan & Turin we head to France tommorow, we changed our initial plans of heading to Nice, and our now heading to Paris for 5 nights. After missing out on so much on Rome because of time we didnt want the same thing to happen in Paris. Our impressions of North east italy are not great im afraid, Turin for a Olympic hosting city was extremely run down and the streets filled with thugs. Milan is much the same, you always get that feeling of being trapped in a cage. The service is really bad. 1 & half hours waiting at the train station for a ticket to paris... So many people missed their train. They had 1 window open for about 50 people, and had staff behind the window talking away. It was very annoying. Unfortuantely my iPod is flat on batteries and they have my photos stored on it, so i can't get them up until Paris. Really looking forward to Paris, so much to see and do it should be awesome! We still miss Venice, it really was one of the greatest places i've ever been too.
Ciao for now, and Bonjour tommorow!
