Italy!

 
 
We just got to Naples, Italy about an hour ago.  I haven't been able to write this blog because we have been on limited Wi-Fi.  Here's a look back of the past week...
 
Days 28 and 29 Rome, Italy
 
Of course we had to check out the Vatican and the Colosseum.  Tanner's Aunt was with us in Rome for these 2 days then she headed back to the states.
 
 
 
 
 
 
Days 30-34 Rome, Italy
 
 
Tanner and I had a couple days to relax before his friend, Chuck, would fly into Rome.  So we found incredible deal at a camping hostel just outside of Rome.  This place is called "Plus Roma" and it was only 10 Euros (roughly $13) a night.  Amenities included a pool, bar, and travelers from all over the world.
 
 
 
We met people, who are now great friends, from the U.K., Australia, Poland, Switzerland, Holland, Hungary, Germany, and many more countries.  It was like one big international party for like 5 days.  This has been my favorite place we have been to in so far. :)
 
 

 
 
Tanner's friend Chuck showed up on day 32.  Chuck is a pretty inspiring story.  15 years ago he was diagnosed with a brain aneurysm.  He had to have life threatening brain surgery.  Today he is still able to do a lot of things but is handicapped.  It is amazing that most people are too afraid to travel to other countries, yet he is handicapped, and willing to explore a foreign country!  It sounds like he will be with us for another two weeks to a month.
 
Day 35 Rome > Naples, Italy
 
Tanner, Chuck, and I enjoyed our staying at the camping hostel for 4 days but decided it's time to finally get to work.  We took a train from Rome to Naples where we are now apartment hunting.  The plan is to get an apartment for a month or so and sell ties in the streets black market style.  Video will be coming up soon in the next blog or too.  In the meantime, we have to find a place and get the ties shipped here.
 
Ciao!
