ITALY FINALLY!!

Okay, all I have to say is once we go to italy I realized I could have spent our entire time there. It was absolutely breathtaking. Rome blew me away. I think it was my all time favorite place we went to. It was completely unexpected. I don't even remember what i pictures in my mind, but it definitely didn't even give it justice.
colliseum!!











And then onto Florence. WOW. another beauty! We didn't want to leave Florence, and we found ourselves returning to it after we found out pisa was a disappointment... I was so glad to be returning to Florence before we made our way to venice. I think I have mentioned how we kept getting into trouble everywhere we went. It started to be quite comical. Everywhere we went people would tell us that what we were doing was... "FORBIDDEN." I just loved how they used that word rather than just "IT'S NOT ALLOWED." In Paris it is forbidden to eat on the arc de triomphe... even though other people were. In Florence it is forbidden to take a picture of the statue of David...even though we got one, but tanner deleted it.... WHY?!?! I DON'T KNOW. We just kept getting kicked around. I loved it. stupid tourists.


Cinque Terre was amazing. We went on a 5 hour hike from village to village along the coast. At times I wanted to die because it was sooo hot, and we were so tired of going up and down the cliffs... but it was worth it... wait no it wasn't. We could have just taken a train to each village, but whatever. We needed the exercise right? It wasn't like we were already walking 10 miles a day.





Venice was HOT! but very relaxing. I'm glad it was one of our last legs of the journey. We actually slept in, and strolled around rather than ran all day long. Sorry about all the pictures!! If you want to see even more... check them out on my facebook. There are a lot, but I love them!
