Up this morning not knowing what time of day it was, simply because I didn't have my watch, I got up out of bed and headed up on deck, looking at the sun I guessed it was about 8:30 basing it on the fact so thought the sun came up about 5am, turns out the sun comes up at about 6am and It was 9:30am. I estimated the hours correctly, just not the time the sun came up. I actually remembered a way of calculating the time roughly based on using your fingers from somet...

I've arrived in Greece this morning on the ferry a little after 8am. It was good to finally say I'm in Greece despite spending the last few hours being on a boat that was set an hour forward for Greece even though I still hadn't been there yet.

While typing this I've just realised that...

We get dropped off by bus and take a little walk down to a meeting point where we meet our local guide for the tour of the Vatican, the Vatican isn't actually a church or a building, it's technically another c...

To Rome today, which included a stop on the way in Orvieto. Orvieto is a city sitting on top of some cliff faces, because of its site on a high, steep bluff of volcanic rock, the city was virtually impenetrable. We rushed to the bottom of the cliff to beat a coupe of other groups which were also planning on heading up. In order to get to the top we had to take a kind of train up, once at the top we took a quick walking tour, because we had rushed past the other g...
