I was told by Annmarie if you dont' have a ticket on a train all you have to do is look really ugly with you eyes closed...pretending your asleep. This is how it's done!

You aren't how ever ment to like like Sherman. Well i don't think that is his name but none the less Meet Sherman. He is form Isreal.He is cool. Always wore the same brown shoes and blue jumper.None the less very helpful adn cool! Tried to teach me Hebrew it worked tfor the moment he was teaching me...but then i forgot it all!

Arrivederci

Slovenia and Trieste

I went to Slovenia and Trieste after my extravaganza in Venice! Oh this turned out to be even more of an extravaganza!! we left eraly as usalu caught the 6am train to Bologna where we got picked up by the Buses. this time there were 2 buses. Usually with this organisation we have 1 bus. But low an behold htey took more people...never agin is that goign to happen!

We had breakfast at a roadside stop thing which was good but it was absolutley FREEZING>< Not cool!>but none the less good! I managed to assit in a spillage of coffee...i was eger to get my pastry! Then we drove more and more and more!

W got to the border where passports had to shown. Two people...didn't get that message. Real Passports...not photocoyp of it! And not you uni id cause well that has nothing on it fancy. no pic at all. So they got left behind. We where unfortunalty 3hrs late and we had minimal time in the wee litle city Koper...or somehting like that. None the less it was still cool! Here are some pics of Koper. When we got there eventually!






















As you can see we didn't have much time till it started to get dark. And it got dark quickly and it got freeky! Femke and I decided it would be cool if we found a bar or something had something to drink and then wait. We did.It was good...it was all in Slovenian. I managed to order and iced tea. eh...but we went to another bar with the group leader guy...no idea what his name is and a guy who was an Erasmus in Bologna or something.That was cool. Nice Irish bar lol. it was cool none the less.

We headed back to the hotel and then we went shopping iinthis cool giant shopping thing. Where people got left behind. LOL and yeah that didnt' go down to well!

Later that night we went back to the city but this time more to the port area wher there where apparently bars and what not. We found a cool place that sold cake. I bought a piece. LOL and then we walked aorund found a place to eat. OH calamaria jsut calamri! Oh it was good! LOL huge the Austrian and I shared it. LOL


Some pretty building at nihgt in the Port place

Very content Annmarie

OK Two new Faces. The girl in the red is Austrian with a Irish English German Italian accent. So hard to Understand her. the half girl to the right of Annmarie is Itlaian/German. You know the rest. LOL we had jsut found the beach! And touched the water and wow it was exciting!

We got back to the hotel around.... 12ish or something. This is a pretty pic of where we were at nihgt! LOL oooo AHHhhhh.

Beautiful morning!
