italy

i am at an internet cafe in naples, italy,with onlya few minutes left on my session. this keyboardloves to not obey me, soplease excuse the excessive crappiness ofmytyping!!!

after we left granada, we had a beautiful day in belgium, and then a great adventure on an overnight train from paris to italy,and we have been in italysince then. florence was great, but naples is... well, how wouldone describe naples? extremely dangerous? extremely dirty? i dont know, but there are definitelya lot of gucci bags being sold on the streets fora GREAT PRICE... hehe... and there are definitely no lines on the roads,no stopsigns, andno stoplights... and cars using the sidewalks as the shoulder, while tourists are innocently trying to walk along them...hehehe... naples,yes,is a great, greatplace. tomorrow we leave forrome, and then we are headed home on saturday. this has been the quickestmonth of my life. i amgladfor that, as i would give just about anything to sit with mom on the couch at homeand just chat the night away. of all things, that is definitely whati miss the most.
