When in Rome do as the Romans do. I dont know what that is exactly but for me it included a whole lot of pouting. Let me just say that I am exausted. Nicole is having trouble sleeping and she isnt exactly quiet when she gets up in the morning... Rome is hot and smells like the smoggiest city on the planet earth. It actually hurts my nose to breathe! We were kind of just stopping here so that we could have just one more night of solid rest before the treck down to Greese so when we arrived today I was hoping to just set up camp in a little cafe and read and write. Unfortunitly I was dragged around Rome looking at fountains. I would not mind this if we had come to Rome to sight see... I mean we didnt even have a full day here! And if we had wanted to sight see in Rome, we would have been spending more then 15 hours here. Anyway, so I figure one fountain wont kill me, but of couse one fountain leads to another fountain. On the way to the second fountain I feel like I might burst with frustration (travelling does make you grumpy and tired sometimes and I am so sick of seeing tourist attractions you have no idea!) so I tell A and N that I am going to go sit in the park and they can just get me when they are done. The park is small and full of old people playing chess. Of couse I end up getting hit on by a sexist 17 year old who plants himself beside me and starts talking about the strangest things i have ever heard. He is so rude and I am just praying for N and A to return. When the stupid twerp asks for my email Im like I dont even know you and then he says something about already having a girlfriend and then i told him he was a creep and he left. Then N and A returned and i made them swear that we would never leave eachother again. Men here are gross.
We are now gearing up for the trip to Greece... have no idea when we will arrive but hopefully it will be soon (2 days max!!)
I will write soon hopefully, maybe...
Wish us luck

- I daydream a lot. I bake, I cook, I travel. I am an English student studying to become who-knows-what. I love fashion, traveling, picture-taking, writing, and reading. I like to go on adventures and day trips. I like gourmet food and I take pride in the fact that my family eats better on a daily basis then most people ever eat in restaurants. I am a cat person. I like lying in the backyard and watching satellites float through the sky. I am kind of forgetful sometimes, but I'm working on it. I will always be a dreamer; not even reality can shake me of that.

Hey Jacque, traveling does sound tiring. Hope you have a safe and easy trip to Greece. I heard from Liz that you are thinking of Paros. Let us know. I checked it out on the web and it looks divine. We love you and will be praying that you make all your connections and get wherever you are going safe and sound. Mom
Jacque ... trust you will get a good night's rest and that will make things seem a lot brighter! I also will be praying that you arrive safely and that wherever you spend your time in Greece, it will be beautiful. Hugs and kisses. Grandma
