Woke up the next morning and eat, oh how I love these small shoddy breakfasts, the brendon, Adam, and I went to the train station and wandered Venice for the last time. Brendon and I bade farewell to adam and some of the other people at the hostel and then grabbed our stuf and.... missed our train. Which ended up being fine since there was one that left within an hour of the last one.
The train ride was just amazing as the Italian countryside, rolling hills and mountains frequented by castles vineyard and farmland, was amazing. The train ride was only 4 hours so it wasn't that bad and I mad friends with a Nigerian guy who wanted to come to Canada due to a lack of work in Italy while Brendon slept. We arrived and rocked good ol' McDonalds, cheap and horrible, then hopped on a bus packed with literally one million annoying 16 year old students (school group) hoping that the direction we were headed was the right way... It was.
We arrived and found out it was cheaper than all the others, 19 euros a night, and for good reason breakfast isn't included and its pretty shitty. Apparently it was the barracks for the athletes in the 30's for the olympics and let me just say that I wouldn't have wanted to be an athlete in the 30's..
'Nuff said,
I'm headed out for a drink at the book bar, a bar where people drink wine and discuss books!!! Yes Life is good right now. Although not speaking italian might make the discussion quite interesting.
adios for now
