Venice, Rome and London

Heya,

We”ve been quite busy the last few days and it’s been really hot though thankfully in Venice and Rome (where it reached 36 degrees) we both had air conditioning in our private rooms (yay) as well as a fridge! Venice was amazing! The canals and winding streets were cool and so were all the masks. We really couldn’t spend much time in the city though cos it got to hot and sticky. Ben and I were pouring sweat but the camping site had a swimming pool although the planes from the nearby airport often threatened to land in the pool. We only spent two full days there before we headed for Rome for one night where we packed and repacked our luggage, hoping that our big blue case we found in Berlin would only weigh 15kgs and our two carry on luggage weighed 10kg each.

This morning at the airport we had to repack our bag again, juggling one thing in a bag to another until we managed to get the perfect weight. Our flight was half an hour delayed for some unknown reaon and it was bloody hot waiting with a hundred odd other people. Finally took off and we arrived in London at 1pm where we battled shuttle buses, trains and the underground to get to our hostel. We’re repacked our bags yet again cos of the weight restrictions changing for our next flight on Saturday and to be honest I’m quite happy to be getting home and finally getting to wear a different outfit!

Will write once more before we leave for home.
