OK, that's plenty of photos of me. Promise I won't do that again.
That last one's for you Lea.(Ferris)
Another theme would be the doors in Rome. the doors are so huge, so huge that some doors have smaller doors in the door, human size.
there's a lot more photos of me if you want. I must remember to smile once in a while.
I've walked a lot in the last three days. My back hurts and feet were aching. The Blundstone boots aren't helping so bought a pair of trendy Italian sandals called Zen and are made in Bosnia.Much better.
Yesterday I hated Rome. Every time I crossed a street someone tried to kill me. All those god damned monuments, cathedrals and fountains. Overdosed already.Truly amazing that man can achieve such stunning work; wonder why we make such crap now?
Today feel a bit more of the sublime. Went to the Borghese museum and almost wept looking at the Bernini sculptures. Learnt how to catch a bus and had a nice walk along the river.Wrote a couple of postcards.
Would have helped if I'd brought some addresses with me, so if you want a real live postcard, send me your address in an email!
One more day here and then I'll be seeking out some countryside somewhere near Naples. This post has given you little information about the places visited.All that stuff is in guide books and written well.
More about fleeting thoughts and emotions. Had a good conversation with an Indian man selling beady things down by the river.I bought a couple of beady things. Must go and eat. Figuring out how to upload those photos took ages.
Ciao.
Hi Cliff!
ReplyDeleteThis is the first time to use this...
I hope it`ll work.
I liked the photos of Bangkok.
There`s one in Japanese.
Looks cold there in Italy.
And please smile next time when you take photos:)
Enjoy the rest, Teruko
I hope you enjoy the countryside! Will you be getting around by train? Or are you venturing into the scary pursuit of hiring a car? Looking forward to hearing more from your next part of the holiday.
