Days 10-15

Ciao Bello/Bellas

Yes in case you havent figured it out already - we are in Italy!!! But let me start from a few days ago when I last posted when we were in Spain. Which of course was another awesome place. From Spain we headed back to France and spent 2 gorgeous weather days in Nice and also a dinner at Monaco - one of the richest places in the world and you wont see so many la-de-da cars parked in a row anywhere else in the world I dont think!! Was pretty cool to see-even for a non car person like me!! But we have been having such a good time- we are so tired as Contiki days are very long with little sleep and thats with not drinking!!
But from Nice we went to Florence - now the weather has really picked up since we arrived in London and its at least 30 every day so we are sweltering walking around all day. Florence was good - we had a walking tour around the city with a guide. Then onwards to where we are now in Rome. This is our 2nd day here- yesterday was total chaos! It is a public holiday here today for St Peters day so the Vatican and sistene chapel are shut- so every man and there dog was there yesterday but we jump the queue and pushed our way to the front to only have to wait 30-45mins instead of the 2 hours! Was another amazing place (they are all amazing places-its our new word!!haha).
Today we have visted Colosseum and spend a hour or so there which was decent. Its so hard to imagine what life was like back in the days...it spins you out really.
Anyway the next 3 days will be in Greece relaxing on a beach in Corfu WOOOHOOOO!!!!
We dont have our phone cables with us so cant put any photos on but as soon as we get to another computer we will post some. Its week 3 and already taken at least 500 pics so will be plently to see!

Ciao for now amigos ;-)
