Intelligent Evil
Second post from Italy. If you managed to translate previous one, I believe you won't have any problems with this. It gets hotter every day here, and it is even worse because these days are for excursions, not for swimming. So no water for poor burning me... *insert tears and pathos here*
Yet our guide seems to think that it is not hot enough as she sent us to Pompei! Yep volcano is here and it knows what to do with tourists. Funny thing about this excursion is that we spent most time listening to how nasty life was in this ancient city. Local ancient "Red lights street" is the only conditioned part of this archeologic museum. Not to mention those annoying children in our touristic group running around and crying about...well everything! Anyway Pompei was nice enough *tho they didn't let me climb this volcano too! >.<*. Greek ruins are better :P
I also had a little search for anime when everyone was shopping. No anime was found *except Dragonball Z which seems to be extremely popular here* but I found italian manga and bought a volume of Naruto manga. It was full of spoilers! No one could spoil me that much, yet I was touched with art and things happening in that volume!
Mega-spoiler!
Interesting thing is that in Italy you can buy manga in any magazin-shop. And it is also cheap (3-5 euro). And I also foung big Gaara figurine for 8 euro. They sold it as a child toy! *sigh* Well it is mine now^^
Now I am in Rome and it is a lot cleaner than Neapol. Today I visited Vatikan and I ll always be surprised on how much money and talent people waste on religion. Just to think that whole this "country" is based on religion is a big rumble for my atheistic brain. Tomorrow we move to the next town and I ll try to keep this diary updated.
This post was much more pessimistic than previous one but honestly it is still good here, the only thing changing is my mood and sometimes I have this annoying mood when I write in irritated state of mind. I just feel really lonely here - our guide keeps repeating how good it is that people in our group have each other. I am far not glad with my co-groupers... Yea-yea annoying words again. Ignore em and try to get only good info^^'
Wish you were here...

Yeah, like Moscow is cleaner than St. Petersburg. Something to do with all this... capital thingie, don't you think? *hint hint nudge nudge*
God, I'm with you here. It was really, really nice in Oxford, but somehow I couldn't stop complaining. Well. It's over now.
*) with you more good time
are you going to Venice? Florence?
And Italians are not just loud, they speak extremely fast - even when they try to speak english, it is italian-english which I can not understand!)
I am gald, we understand each other^^
Yeah, all of our Italians were on the 1st (worst) level of English. Eh =/ though they have really nice waiters. Loved them when being in Venice.
Goddamn it, Lett, I spent three weeks speaking only English at least half of each day, of course I understand you. Somehow it even seems a bit more natural for me to speak English now.Oh, re-read your comment... you were speaking 'bout just general understanding. Yeah, that's too. I really wanted to swim but I had no chance at all =//span>
