Teck!!: France - Italy trip Day 3

Let's continue the Italy trip. After 2 nights in France, here starts the Italy trip. In case you've no idea where Italy exactly is, found this from google's image.

This is the only trip that I'm joining a tour from Birmingham. It is really worthy. In total, we'd traveled about 3000km!! Starting from Paris - Torino (hotel) - Milano - Verona (Romeo and Juliet) - Padoza (hotel) - Venice - Rome - Vatican - Florence - Pisa - Genova (hotel) - Monaco - Nice (France) - Cannes (France) - Paris. Is a 10 days 9 nights trip. Around 350 pound including tips, but exclude other expenses such as food, souvenior... ...

Enjoy this trip very much.

Firstly, eat, sleep on the bus, tour, sleep again, tour again, eat, sleep in hotel. HAHA!! This is our lovely bus =) Secondly, the food is really really nice!! Authentic Italian food such as spaghetti, bolognese, pizza. Double thumbs up!! This is actually stopping me from eating italian food in other countries, especially in England -.-" and in M'sia really none can compare to them except for one in SS2, Pizzeria. Their food looks simple, yet taste superb!

Thirdly, I'm following 3 shoppers^^" They really open up my eyes and comparing branded items. Hmm... Aihs, better earn more sterling first, then a RM2000 bag or shoe or what so ever is only around 350 pound =P
Fourthly, the trip had another 4 Vietnamese who had lived in American for more than 20 years and 2 more 25 odd age chinese girl. We manage to get along pretty well =) Oh, the driver as well.

Fifthly, most of the hotels are at least 3 stars and really comfortable. There is a hotel that we can take everything inside the small little refrigerator. This is so cool!!

First day straight away shoot from Paris to Italy!! Stay in an unknown place, Torino. However, this is good because this is the place where traditional good food can be found =) and true enough, we bought 3 traditional Italian pizza which were cooked by using wood log!! Really really nice!!! Even though it seemed so simple. The hotel that we were staying liked a motel more than hotel ^^" Didn't bring camera out. Using handphone to take.
Does it looks like a motel??

The next day, we'd one day in Milano (Milan). What's Milan famous for?? Gucci bag!! hahaha. After Louis Vuiton, in Paris, now is Gucci in Milan. After looking at LV, Gucci, Prada, Mont Blanc... so on and so on, I prefer Gucci's bag. The price is definitely so cheaper than M'sia a lot. This is what I learn from 3 of them. Ehm... After Milan, we'd a quick visit to Juliet house in Verona which was on the way to Padoza where we were staying. Actually, I've forgotten whether is Juliet's house or Romeo's house. It should be Juliet's house because Juliet's statue is there...

MilanoInside is full of branded shops.
Next to the building got this cathedral.
Outside there is a square.

A castle near to Milan city.

Police car!!

Out of no where got this.

Verona

There is a smaller version of the rome's colesseum.

Juliet's house

The balcony where Juliet is standing and romeo sang for her.

Crowded... because her house is sandwiched by other houses and not too big as well.

Poor Juliet.... Your right breast has been touched by how many million of people!? haha^^"

The wall inside and outside is full of love message and text.

Venezia

Then we'd one full day in Venezia (Venice) - the floating city. The sinking city as well. People's predicting this city will drown in 50 years time due to the global warming. Better be quick to visit it before it really happens!! Venice is famous for mask and Gondola. We visited a glass factory and tasted "black squid ink" pasta. The spaghetti is black in color!! The taste not too bad.

Things in Venice are expensive... poor people like us can't really spent there....
