Rome

After about 7 hrs on the plane we arrived at 12:35pm Italy time. I slept the entire flight...just in time for my coffee and muffin prior to landing. Kim however, sat awake the entire time. Good flight I thought...:) Tons more leg room than Air Transat!
Its a suprising 27C here today but a bit overcast.
ok....check it out....while picking up our baggage the conveyor stops after about half the bags come out...10 mins goes by.....we are both getting antsy, only to find that a loose strap from my bag got caught in the dumb thing before ripping it off and putting a fist size rip in my bag....Oops!...my bad (blush)
Found a shuttle to the hotel that made only 2 stops before ours...awesome.
Hotel Londra-Cargill....nice place ...nothing fancy but clean and in the midst of all the tourist stuff. Perfect!
Its about 3pm now...gonna clean, go get a bite to eat.....a beer and do some sight seeing baby ya!

Sadly this blog reads in reverse. To see the trip from the start you need to scroll to the bottom and work back up.

Arbatax, Sardinia

The Polar Bear Club
Today was a b-e-a-utiful day!!!  I'm guesing it is about 28-30C with clear blue skies and a slight ocean breeze.
Kim and Yvonne both spent the morning in the spa getting pampered while Joe and I took in the sights around the pool.
He had to to take this pic of me to prove to Kim that I actually got up the courage to go in the arcticesque water. Once I got in...Joe and Kim quickly followed suit....and the trend was started.  Everyone else near the pool got in ...a show of bravery that you can only appreciate if you felt this water. Hats off to the old folks who did it...especially the guy who we had to revive using the defib afterwards....(kidding)..but it was that cold....brrr!!!
