Hotel Diplomat Palace Rimini

... lanes around to find ever more wonderful views, interesting shops eg... guns and rifles in all their glory!! (yep - off the shelf), palace, church and a huge race track where they do trials (we could hear them in the background). It was like a rabbit warren in a way, but going up instead of down.<br><br>We went for an early morning walk to see the sunrise the next day. It was magnificent!<br><br>John <br><br>As I wrote in the title, I had ...

... Dave is having a lot more success at tanning than me.<br><br>So the time has come to move on again. Tomorrow we are getting the morning train to Venice, hopefully giving us the afternoon to look around and have some dinner before getting the night train to Budapest. It will be our first experience of a sleeper train and we have heard mixed reviews. Still, we are both excited and can't wait to get to Hungary... a step closer to Moscow!<br><br>Love!<br><br>Amy and Dave xx<br><br><br><br>

We got to Rimini later that night after Pompeii. It was another 6 hour drive so again we were exhausted. We checked into the hotel and it was perfect. Nicer than the last one we were at. We had booked in advance for the night and the rate was 30eros cheaper than the next night so we (I) thought we would just get there and tell them we wanted another night at the same price. Unfortunately they played me harder than I played them and said they had no availability ...

... There is the most incredible sheen to them; some are from the 3rd - 4th centuries AD, and yet they look like they were created yesterday. Pretty much everything else in Europe has been - as Mat so delicately puts it - "covered in cherubs and gilt!", and it's unexpected to find a place so untouched through the Renaissance.<br><br>Next time we will make a few days for this lovely town.

... his course funneled him to the middle of the field where 11, the Marines best player, was waiting. From my vantage point I thought Reggie&#8217;s only chance of getting in the end zone was to cut left, but instead he stuttered stepped, froze 11, and broke right. I was furious again for a moment &#8211; until 11 dove after Reggie and came up empty, leaving Reggie with one or two more obligatory defenders to run around before he was free to jubilantly hurdle the goal ...

A disgrace I know, but I didn&#8217;t take any pictures in Forli , in fact I almost didn&#8217;t take any NOTICE of Forli at all. A slight distraction in the midst of me preparing last year accounts and my VAT returns before we depart for Asia. I had to get it done and yes I felt like a boring old b******d but when it was all done it was wonderful. The hotel here was nice ...

Tuesday 2nd June. We set off as the sun began to show through and leaving Mugello followed 5 massive trucks with the Moto Gp logo on them so they were off to the next racetrack site, like geeks we videoed this. We headed towards Tavulia and arrived at valentino Rossi's hometown md morning.The small town had 46 flags flying along the main road and we found the Rossi cafe where we had a coffee of which my cappuccino had 46 inscribed in the froth!!The cafe ...

... te a la pesca, due coke, e un bellini" and trying to remember that and make them all while other similar orders were coming in all at the same time. Anyway my stomach was in knots and I felt like I was going to be ill, but I persevered and after a few days I actually began to really enjoy myself and working with the people there. I must admit I was very sad, but also excited to be leaving (going to Sicily with my dad and all!). A fantastic experience all round.

... il mio italiano.<br>Le cose più belle sono successe in questo viaggio. Ho conosciuto gente dal tutto il mondo e ho fatto amici veramente di cuore. Al corso italiano che andavo ho conosciuto l'amore della mia vita e la persona migliore per girare il mondo. Ho cominciato a viaggiare molto purtoppo finora solo in Europa ma con la intenzione di andare dappertutto.<br>Milano, la grigia città secondo molti, la città più brutta di Italia, per me era incredibile...<br><br>
