Tuesday, July 20, 2004 ( 1:14 PM ) shut up christine Rome, Italy This is an excerpt from an email my sis sent me: Hey you better call home or email when you get the chance! This is what a typical Bulaoro morning is without you. Mama: Did K call yet? Dad: No. Mama: Email? Dad: No. Mama: (goes to her room and cries) Nanet: HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH! Nanet, tell Ma not to cry anymore because that email made me sad. But really, everything is okey dokey artichokey so no worries. About one more week of backpacking left before school starts so we'll be making our way around Italy before heading back to Spain. I didn't realize until now how tiring this would be... most days we have to wake up before the butt crack of dawn, on other nights we attempt to sleep on 10 hour train rides. At one point I hadn't taken my sneakers off for 35 hours straight, yeah my feet stunk pretty bad, and then it was hard to take my shoes off because my feet had swollen. So anyhow we started off our trip with practically no intinerary, and whatever plans we had made the first night we arrived had to be scrapped completely because we missed a train. Pretty much we've been taking one day at a time, sometimes not knowing where we'd sleep the next night or even what country we'd be in..and I've had moments where I think about stuff like "I wonder how much longer I can hold in my poo" and "Why the heck am I hiding in this closet and standing in a pool of my urine" stuff like that but all in all this has been quite an awesome experience, and although it hasn't been the easiest ride ever, if I wanted things to be easy I would have stayed at home, know what I mean jelly beans? Oh man I have so much more to write...Germany was crazy and so was Vienna we went clubbing on my birthday at this place that played Oriental House it was fun times. I'd write more but some people are waiting to use the computer so I'll come back when I have the time. Peace out buds #
