Ok began today with breakfast (as one does) and left the house at 8:30 to go and do what a proper tourist does in Venice.... Go to saint marks square. So anyway at saint marks we spontaneously decided to go to the top of the bell tower and look at Venice from above. It was actually really worthwhile because you get a much better impression of Venice and how unorganized the houses are. Also up the top we looked at the big bells and I tried to spot all the places we've been in Venice. when we got home we had tea and then left the house at 11:20 with big packs on our backs and little packs on our fronts both laden down with merchandise. We caught the first train at 11:50 and guess what..... THE AIRCON DIDN'T WORK!!!!!! Ha not fun believe me! Anyway when we finally arrived in Milan (sweating and trying to cool ourselves off) we went to an upstairs restaurant lounge thingy and had a biscuit and an ice tea. Unfortunately we had to pay a table charge (mummy's prediction was correct) but anyway.... Got on the second train from Milan to lake Como at 3:20 and it was packed (and the air con didn't work) we stood for about 5 minutes just trying to get our seats which was "fun". After a very horrifically hot train trip we arrive in Como and walked (with dad and I directing) to our apartment. The apartment is really nice except I don't have any aircon in my room D: . We went shopping and bought spec ravioli, pesto and tomato for dinner! And now we are trying to remain semi cool. I'm kinda wishing for the Aussie winter right now.
Gotta go
Alas stairs
