2nd Day of Rome

31st March 2008



We had our breakfast in a small restaurant, bread with nutella and super peewee size glass of pear juice (never have one before). Today we planned to go the Vatican city. We used the metro to go there. The tube so different from London, abis wah kana lukis lukis train ah. We arrived the metro station near the Vatican but not near enough. Have to walk about 20 minutes. I shoulda took some pictures of the building, abis wah blukis dmana mana. I knw that Italy is a place of art, but do you have to go to such extent. Well it should be a 20 minutes walk but nooooo its not possible cause we had girlSSS with us. Its not that they walked slowly but they need to stop to every shop (well not every shop). So we split up, Nick and I went first.

We all finally arrived at Vatican city. Its massive. (Ohya except for Steph, no one wishes me yet even Ka Shidah). Taking lots of pictures in the Vatican. Just see the pictures k (A picture is worth a thousand words so kira panjang my essay dah tu)



My first birthday present, thank you Ka Siti.




We spent 3-4 hours at Vatican City. Gosh i was so hungry. So we forage for restaurant around the area.
The pasta was sooooo good.............. seriously sooooooo goooooood


Here some pic we took when we walked around Rome, yest lots of pic hehe



YES WHO THE GIRL AT THE BACK (MY STALKER TU HAHAHA)



After we had our lunch we went back to our hotel. We all were so exhausted from the excursion so we planned just to stay in the hotel. At 7 p.m later we having our dinner with yen's cousin. The food was marvelous here some pictures we took.




While we all enjoying the food, suddenly this waitress carried a petite cake with a candle on it. (Damn they got me). Well yeah like in general people sing people blow the candle and took some pictures. NOTE: Pretend to forgot your friend birthday especially in his/her 21st or any sweet number plus in a trip just cruel hahaha.





Thanks guy you guys the Best!!

Before we went back to our hotel we walked into a bookshop to buy Milan map. While looking for the map Nick found an interesting book, KAMUS FOR MALAY

ROME

30th March 2008


3 hours of flight, finally we arrived in ROME. The airport was distance from our hotel, we took an hour bus drive to metro station. When the bus arrived at the metro, we all in deep shocked of the thing we saw around us. Not a scenery one expected for Rome. Crap, did we took the wrong bus? Is this Mexico? No one said a word but kept looking at each other. Somehow no one dare to speak up. We all rushed into the metro station and took the tube to hmmmm Agna......... (can't remember). The tube is spacious compare the one in London. When we arrived to our destination, again we were puzzled. How long was the tube ride, how come we in Philippines. Yes filipino everywhere!! Interesting no? Ignoring the craziness we carry on our adventure ( exaggerate ). Stef lead the way. According to the map the hotel just next to the station. Cari punya cari, payah eh. Ohya ada jua restaurant halal. We eventually found the place, really weird (Again), the reception and the hotel room at different building. Two three blocks apart. The room was fair enough. We waited for Yen cousin to show us around.

Here some pictures we took when we at the Coleseum.





Walked around the area and enjoying the scenery. I'm not really into art and history. But Rome just astounding. I never thought something decrepit can be so alluring. Yeah took some more pictures.



The weather was hot so we stopped by to a cafe for an ice cream.


We were so Exhausted from all the walking. We went back to the hotel and get some rest. We gathered at the girls room talking about our day. The main topic was the place where we thought it was Mexico hahaha. Then i went to my room for awhile when i came back everyone stopped talking and stared at me. In my mind, crap were they talking about me?? I tried to recall my day, did i do something wrong?? Darn its awkward. Then ka shidah, ka siti and I went to the Halal restaurant. Bought some pizza for dinner. (Pizza over here taste really good even on the street). Back to the girls room and still the thorny atmosphere.


Then just went back to my room and off to bed. Woke up around 1 am, my phone was vibrating like crazy. Nice, msg from Azim, Zeing and Khairul. Thanks for the wishes guys. A minute later msg from Ka mimi, saying the bread that I bought from tesco not Halal. I reread the text hmm i couldn't see any hidden msg. Weird, she msg me at 1am on my birthday not to wish me but to say bread not halal. Couldn't sleep after that. Stayed up the whole night.
