Italy part 2


 Some random dog haha

 smiling next to a dead guy... I'm a monster


 We were taking pictures of each other all day

 What does this look like to you? the Italians say this symbol brings good luck... look closely


 That is Mount Vesuvius in the background... how cool

This is the only picture I got of Napoli, after this pic was taken, I didn't not take out my camera again.

The following day we got to see Pompeii... it was so amazing seeing Pompeii. Like how the city used to be before it got destroyed by the volcano... absolutely amazing. Pompeii is about an hour outside of Napoli. We got to see a little bit of Napoli, but it wasn´t a very comfortable environment. It's kind of a dangerous city with the mob and all of that stuff. There was like a guy on every corner checking us out making up his mind if he was going to rob us. In the end nothing happened. You just got to be aware of what is around you and things will be alright.

 The Vatican City




 Look the Coliseum




 Death... love this statue
 













 The paintings inside the cathedral look 3d but they are flat, it was incredible!


 The famous fountain of Trevi



  my first real Italian Pizza!!!


Roma! The following day we went to Rome! It was amazing... we saw so much cool stuff... The thing is, we were only there 1 day so we only got to see 1 days worth of activities... We also saw the Vatican City... all of this stuff was amazing.

So the cruse was fun... We were tiered everyday as you can imagine from staying up till 5 am every morning. But you know, this is a once in a life time opportunity and we took advantage of every moment! This is one of those once in a life time experiences, and I loved every moment of it. I got to see Italy for the first time, and I got to get the chance to be on a ship, with my classmates.. These pictures now are my memories that will never go away. I had one of the best times of my life!!!!

Maybe I'll do it again someday, but it will never be the same, because I can never recreate the moments that I shared with these people! It was amazing... and I loved it... nothing more to say!

Guti's amazing and super fantastic trip to ITALY

So my trip to Italy started the 31st of March at 6 in the morning if you know what I mean, after going out to party Friday night we all slept like babies in the bus. The bus took us to Valencia, which was where the ship was waiting for us to board. We waited like 3 hours to board, and than we set off to Italy. This was the first time in my life I had been on an actual cruise liner. It was amazing. The first night we got there, we were all exhausted from traveling and waiting, but that didn't stop us from going to the ships discoteca, in which we danced all night until 5 in the morning! The following day was Easter, so many of us dressed up in professional clothes. The second day was funny because it was the day every one got "sea sick". I think half my friends threw up, but for the crazy ones, like me, we went again to the discoteca to party until 5 in the morning!

Here are some photos of the first 2 days (still haven't gotten to ITALY yet) this is my whole class... and I look good with a suit in jeans!

Day 3 was the first day we actually got toset foot on Italy. We arrived first in a city called Trapani. It was a really cool moment to just think to my self, "I'm in freaking Italy man!" Got to eat some Italian ice cream. It was amazing.






So all the photos above are from Trapani



 some photos at the dicoteca... at this point we have gone 3 consecutive days of party till 5am
Chapel in Messina










 the ship on the left is our boat



 this isn't our ship, but its a cool pic

The next day we went to Messina, which was absolutely beautiful here are more pics... Geographically Messina is in Sicilia; where the boot meets the rock if you know what I mean, a beautiful strait. We got to see a lot more of Italy and its people in Messina.
