Italy Trip…finally….part 1

Yeah…

Finally, managed to upload some photos from my trip to Italy here. Gosh, can’t believe I took almost 2 months. =P

Well, I went for a trip to Europe on 2nd October 2006, 11 days trip, though the plane was scheduled for departure at 11.59pm. You know how these people manipulate time to get more money. But anyway, its a nice place, very nice. Wonderful experience, getting to visit 6 countries; 3 big, 3 small ones. The big ones are Italy, France and Switzerland. Smallest, Vatican, followed by Monaco, and then San Marino, with the latter being the 2nd and 4th smallest contries in Europe (or the world??) respectively. (the 3rd is Luxemberg) Lots of old buildings and alot of greenery. Very romantic indeed. And for them, their city is a sort of an open air museum. They preserve these old buildings for modern use, as offices, shopping lots, and they are very well maintained, espcially compared what we see in KL centre. The people there, are just different.  Romantic. They dress in formal attire and ride nice motorbikes with high shields. Some rides bicycles. How often do you get to see some young, handsome Italian, dressed in office attire, riding a bicycle here?  And then their florists, are just totally stuffs out of paintings. Luscious brightly coloured flowers fill mini booths at the corner of the streets, and then this lady will walk out of it, carrying a bouquet of fresh lilies, followed by a cute lil furry doggie on a leash. Scenes like this, you get to see alot there. And yeah, people there tend to walk around with a dog alot. Those dogs, they look different than those we can find here. Except for the occasional bull dogs.

More later…

Anyway, its situated in my Photo Album, http://jenncrystal.blogs.friendster.com/photos/italy_trip/, but due to the onemonth=50 photos restrictions, I got stuck in France. So if I’m lucky, I’ll be able to upload the rest tommorow. So happy viewing.
