From Corfu a group of about 10 of us caught a ferry across the Mediterranean to Bari, Italy. It was Chris and I, these two Australian girls, and these Canadian girls. We had to sleep on the boat which kind of sucked but then we woke up and wow there's Italy. The Canadian girls (from Edmonton) were going to follow Chris to Croatia but then they changed their minds and decided to go to France instead. I had to go to Rome to catch my flight home so we went on the same train. It was a long trip but the weather was sunny and there were views of big blue water and castles and we crossed through the Appenine Mountains which was really interesting. Even in the end of May there was still snow up on the peaks.
Being in Rome for the second time was a lot more relaxing and really nice because I knew my way around. For me it was kind of the perfect way to end my four months in Europe somehow. I was sad to go but what can you do. I found a hostel through some guy hanging outside of the hotel desk at the train station, helped the Canadian girls figure out how to get to the other train station in Rome for their trip to France, and we went for dinner and ice cream in Rome. I woke up at 5 am to go to the Rome airport
