    It's good to be back, after 25 days your ready to go home. Not to mention lost baggage, missed flights, etc.

    I took well over 1200 pictures all on my 2gb memory card with plenty of room left to spare. I'd say about half are random, you can only take so many "tourist" shots. I started in London, then Barcelona, France, Italy, Greece, and Croatia.

    I left London only days before those car bombs were found, thank god. I'll make a post for each place visited starting with London.. (56k DEATH!!!!)

    I went to Nice, then Cannes, France. The weather was great, the yachts were HUGE..

    Off to Florence, Naples, Venice, and Rome. I got a kick out of all the people "holding up" the leaning tower in Pisa. If you don't find it funny, I guess it's one of those things where you had to be there.

    Nice! Looks like you had a fun trip. :)

    BTW I laughed at the people "holding up" the Pisa tower too... hahaha.

    You didn't make it to Maranello?

    Nice photos Good! Looks like you had a great time. In college I used to go to Europe for about a month during the summers. I usually went to Poland, but sometimes I would back-pack with a buddy of mine all over Europe. But you're right. It is a long time and it seems like a year. All you want to do is go home. But then, after I'd been home for a few days, the trip seemed so short and I REALLY wanted to go back. Vicious cycle.;)

    Thanks you guys, it was quite a trip. Weird how the girls I hung out with in these countries were all from America. :D


    I didn't have time, I only saw 1 Ferrari I believe in Italy. A group I knew went to Monaco and freaked out over seeing 4 Ferraris. I didn't tell them my secret about home..:)


    I took it at the right moment of him talking, he lead the pubcrawl I went on.

    It was quite a harbor, in person they are like buildings.

    Well, I didn't mention that all 4 bags were lost. We received 3 of the 4 a week into the trip and the 4th came home a month later soaking wet. British Air was a hassle, but we ended up getting $1500 per person. The 4th check just came in the mail today. Yippeee! It pays to follow up!!

    Did you like Barcelona? I heard it was the ****hole of Spain. Please tell me I'm wrong.

    It was down the street at St. James Palace I believe, where they start out in changing of the guard to Buckingham Palace.


    WELL, London to Barcelona flight is when our baggage issue happened. So I spent most of my time in Barcelona without my luggage, it sucked to say the least. Compared to the rest of my stops, I didn't particularly like it at all. I don't plan on ever going back, but then again some people love it. I have a buddy who just moved there for a month for the hell of it
