Update from Italy Italy, Vacations
|
Rome sucks!
From having to deal with an ATM card that won’t work, unbelievably enourmous crowds, a traffic system that constantly seems like it is on the verge of gridlock, to a body clock that essentially ends my day at 6 PM, and has me wide awake at 2 AM this vacation has not gotten off to a good start.
I can only hope things will get better once we get to Florence (we leave today), and then on to the farm house in Tuscany.
Beyond that, I will say the people are friendly, mostly speak English (they have to in order to deal with the inordinate number of Americans here), and the first pizza I had, although thinner than what I remember, and the application of toppings different, tasted identical to what I remember pizza tasting like when I was growing up in Pittsburgh.
So things aren’t that bad.
Stay tuned for more updates. Maybe??

Rome sucks? Quit your kvetching We had our audit today and she thought we were making parts incorrectly because the PO says rev C but the Dwg says rev B(on page two) So I had to show her PAGE ONE. Then I had to explain what a hogout was.
I should have told her “it’s what we holler when a fat chick leaves.”
Try to have a good time and bring me back a book, please!!!
Have no fear. Things are looking up in Florence!
And I already bought you a book so don’t worry!
Oh yeah, and just be thankful I wasn’t there for the audit.
Yeah, I get a book form Italy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
