Hi Girls!!
Just popping on to say hi!
Sorry to hear about all the sore hips
that doesn't sound very nice at all.
I'm still on holiday but we've stopped off in an internet cafe, and I could not resist coming on for a peek to check on you all!
We are having a nice holiday although it has been a bit too hot for my liking. We were in Florence for 4 days first, and now we have moved to a small town called Corniglia on the coast. I'm not too happy at the moment as have just found out there is a 24hr train strike in italy starting tonight at 9pm. My question is why didn't the woman at the ticket office this morning tell us that as we bought 3 day train tickets to travel around this area?
There are 5 little villages all close to each other but the only way to move between them is train (or boat). Am annoyed because we were going to try a different town for dinner tonight. And it means we can't go anywhere tomorrow either.
I also was not impressed yesterday when we got to our accommodation - they said there was a problem with the room so we had to go elsewhere for 1 night. The shower was so small I had to squeeze my stomach through to get in. And the walls were so thin you could hear EVERYTHING from the room next door which seemed to have about 10 people in it taking showers at 3am. Oh yes, you could especially hear everything from their toilet. So I kept getting woken up by weeing and flushing noises.
We haven't paid for it yet - but I think I will be arguing the final cost when we leave.
I don't even believe there was a problem with the room, I think they had just double-booked (but I saw my name was at the top of the reservations page as I booked in JANUARY!!!!). We got into our own room today and it is very nice. Then we were at the train station and a man said "does anyone want these day passes for the boat" so we said yes and have just had a spin along the coast - the tickets were 23 euros each but we got ours free!!
so that cheered me up a bit!
Oh yes - the pregnancy thing. To be honest I don't feel pregnant at all at the moment. I don't think anything is wrong, no pain or that, but I just don't feel anything down there. Apart from (tmi alert) when we tried to BD - ouchy - no more of that thanks!
Right - paying by the minute here so better go - wrote a bit more than I meant to!
Hope everyone is ok!!
Take care
