Day 12: Rome To Florence

Tuesday, June 4, 2002

Went to rest stop where we tried 'ranchis.'

Photo stop for group picture with Fienze in the background.

Kyle recommends we go to pharmacy because just about everyone is contaminated by the Contiki cough. Val's garlic and Chinese meditation ineffective. (Ever notice how Kyle and Ali never got sick?)
Learned real leather has inner suede.

Drank their bottled water.

So how can you tell if leather is real? I see.

Garble, garble, garble. Maybe if I hold my speaker up they can hear me. What am I looking for? I need more water, dawg. Guide had her own microphone and speaker set.
Saw outdoor museum, streets, golden doors, cathedral, and all those cool tourists that took pictures of everything.

He's NOT taking a picture now with this bottle in my mouth. There he goes again.

Is he taking a picture of my ass? And you wonder why pictures are not allowed. Saw the real statue of David. When in Florence, see it. The veins and the muscles are so lifelike and detailed in every way that you can truly appreciate the art in it.

The museum staff kept yelling "No PEEKtures!"

Shouldn't David be wearing pants?
