So, I have not completely abandoned my writing on this blog, but have had a few setbacks in posting on it because of lack of internet throughout the last few weeks. First time since I bought my laptop that I haven't had it at my beck and call (unfortunate how close of a bond we form with lifeless objects). Well anyways, made it to Italy and traveled from Rome to Perugia (where the American girl killed her roommate while she studied abroad) and now currently in Venice. Venice is by far one of the best cities we have seen thus far on our trip throughout Europe and even more amazing than we pictured it to be. The canals string through the city like wispy hairs and the thin alleyways make it almost impossible to ever know where you're going. While the humidity causes a consistent dampening of the skin, it is still a thoroughly enjoyable experience to just walk around and take in the beauty of the city.
Tomorrow we are leaving on a cruise to Croatia and Greece. Hopefully Athens will have settled down by the time we get there...
