Ok here are some photos from the second day of my Italy Trip…

I noticed that hotels in Italy requires their guest to check-out pretty early.. 10am..or 11am..theres this notice in the room–> ‘Rooms Must Be Vacant Before 11am On The Day of Departure. Failing To Do So, Management Will Automatically CHARGE According To The Daily Room Rates…’So as budget travellers we dont want to end up paying for an extra day eh…
Our train scheduled to Firenze is at 11.30am but it was not even 10am when we got to the main station, Roma Termini. Tried to changed our ticket so we could leave an hour earlier but its jus not our day..The ticket counters were pretty busy. so, what shall we do now?? Lepak in McDonalds for the next one and a half hour..

In front of the stinky Roma Termini..really smelt like some public toilets in Malaysia.

(i must say that all the trains in Italy are never on time, reminds me of Malaysia again) Our train departed later and best of all the info of platform are wrong on the notice boards.. Phew.. luckily we noticed that n got our way to Firenze..

Was a rush rush trip in Florence cos we were to catch the evening train to Venice.. so we were really running around like mad so we wont be late..

After a blur blur bus ride, finally reached Pisa Tower…(as my lanci esther said, ‘Lanci get to see the second monument of 7 Wonders of the world’) but it was really very impressive..

Info about how Pisa was build and hows the management keeping the place in tip top condition.. we didnt get to enter the tower cos it was quite pack and to get a ticket we hav to walk all the way across the field to the ticketing office.. omg..no time la…wth cant we jus sneak in?? ewwww this is jus so……tut..
