Greetings to all forum memberz.
I hope i didn't miss anything special or any flamer topics ( and i hope Blackfox's english has become better
)
I'm back from a 6 day school trip to Italy.
The group consisted of 37 pupils (10th and 11class), 3 teachers, 1 Parent and a russian interpreter girl (and 2 bus drivers of course).
The journey took 12 hours and it was damn tiresome, but it was worth it.
We stayed at some kind of hotel camp with small holiday houses in the Gulf of Napoli and visited many famous places.
There were 4 groups in our holiday camp: ours, a french and german teenager group ( til wednesday) and some 123 italian bambinis( from thursday til we left).
We couldn't establish any good communication by speaking, so the alcohol did it
.
Apart from the drinking games, singing and good mood at the camp, there were many things we found out about italy:
- Always take enough money with u, cos u might regret missing some costly stuff
- Never act like u can speak italian if u can't, unless u have planned trying to talk for about half an hour with an italian without understanding half of what hes saying.
- Always keep an eye on your belongings because of pickpockets( one of the not so good traditions in italy
)
- You'll find at least one Dingo ( Canem tramp) in every town, in pompei at every cornerside.
- Never drive with the mafia, don't even think about it.
- Always remember to have enough space for pictures etc.
Here's a rough plan of what we did
Monday
-Rome: Colloseum, the Vatican( happy birthday paparatzi
)
Circus Maximus and many more.
Tuesday
- Vesuv and the beach of sorrento
- Pompei
Wednesday
-The Sulfur Volcano in Solfatara
Thursday
- Paestum: Archeologic sites like them old temples
- Paestum beach: met a group of nice italian girls
Friday
- The mafia island Capri, including Tiberius's Villa and every single ice-cream parlour
Saturday
-Florence: The Jewelry bridge Ponte Vecchio
Piazza della Repubblica in Florence.
pictures and more info later, the 12 hour trip just drains power.
Gotta sleep
hehehe
