Xmas day in Roma!!
















Hi everyone and a special welcome to Matt and Em its great to hear from you guys, and i contemplated tackling the Pope but hes a bit weedy as you can see a woman took him out fairly easily, we had a great day on our own today we saw the Panthenon, the Trevi Fountain and the Spanish Steps they were all truly beautiful, oh Sam was so upset she finally saw some nice shoe stores snd unfortunately due to xmas they were shut! What a bleeding shame!





Well we leave Roma tomorrow for Cairo and another adventure we are trying to cram all our souveniers and tidbits into our ever growing bags, unfortunately we were going to post some gear home but the Italian postal sevice never seems to be open!!





Alex you will be happy to know we found our first obnoxious American she was the wecoming ambassador for the American exchange students here in Rome and she was collecting some new students on the Metro and spent the next 10 minutes telling them how crap rome was and how everything is sooooo much better in the states, we both wished she would just shut up and go back there, ignorant so and so!!





Cant wait to speak to you from Egypt, We love and miss you all Ralf & Sam xxx

  2. That's so unfair about the shoe shop being closed Sam!

    Hope you guys have a good trip to Cairo and enjoy the travels around Egypt. Now it's time to go and see all the places from the endless photos from slide night :)))

  3. Yay - your first American - great job. And snap - in exactly the same town as we discovered our first. Now you can fully appreciate the tales of 'those bloody yanks'!
    Lots of Love

  4. Sam - I see you are using the bottle holder! Much easier I think than a back pack. I am sure you are actually glad that Cartier was closed!!!
    Have a wonderful day.
    Love

  6. Hi Ralf and Sandra
    You will be in Egypt now and I am green with envy. Watching a doco on foxtel about Akunaten and his new religious centre at Armana. Can't wait to hear your experiences. Love Chris
