Swindon, UK Jul 27, 2006 I am now home! We have decided to come home for a month before the rest of the world starts to earn some more money - Europe is great but so expensive! Will update more from 1st September x x
Venice, Italy Jul 27, 2006 We have spent 4 nights in Venice, we stayed at Camping Alba D'Oro which is about 20 minutes outside of Venice. It has nice accommodation consisting of tents and cabins.

We spent the first 2 days going to the pool and then to the bar in the evening and we ventured into Venice on the 3rd. We caught a shuttle...

The train journey took half an hour and as it was dark outside we couldn't really see anything. We arrived at Termini and it was about 22hrs so we went to the fi...
