Jetlag?


Designer clothes are expensive. Like GDP of a small Romanian village expensive. Stumbling lost through the backstreets of Rome I found myself stuck in the same rut of brand name boutiques. By some I felt tempted. Others a little disturbed by faux fur placement. On a positive note, these mini-monacos had air con gushing out of them.  

I’ve been in Rome about nine hours. Saw the coliseum. Bought a phone. Lost several things (still got my dignity). Ate gelato.  Took a shower. Smoked socially with a middle aged couple in an alley. Got lost (x100).  Saw a bunch of fountains and some churches. All of the sights are a bit boring. And crowded. Probably what I like best are the back alleys, and talking to people on the street.

Drinking some wine. Going out to dinner with some new friendsies from my pensione tonight.

 Tomorrow I’m going to Vatican City. Most excited about the museums. 

Missing my sneaky little snark travel partner LW. Sad to leave arethewilsontwinsstillalive.blogspot.com for a solo venture. 

Formatting this bad boy is more difficult than I expected.
