Nice pictures!

Now I'm just waiting for some amusing stories to go with them!

**SuDz** · 06-17-2005, 02:34 PM

Wow, some really nice shots of the colleseum in there. Looks like by all the ones labeled "pub crawl..." I would say you guys had a good time.

Ok now I guess it is story time:

Amsterdam:

Got completely wasted one night. We drank ourselves silly and ended up heading to the Red Light District with about 8 Canadians (always a good idea right?). They happned to play my fav song on the jukebox so I head to the bar for a shot...and glace up. Space cakes. 3.60 euro. I buy one for me and one for my friend. We chase our shots with the cakes. The bartender has this open mouth look of disbelief and I ask her "What's wrong?" She said something like "Most people split those cakes, they have weed AND shrooms in them!" So, I shrug that off and leave. 30 minutes later I am stumbling around drunk, high, and tripping all at once. I end up eating a ton of pizza (too much I guess) and puking in the nearby canal. We made it back to our hostel by some miracle of god that night since all we could do is stumble, laugh uncontrollably, and run into walls/people.

Rome:

We go on the Homer pub crawl (yes form the Simpsons). All the beer you can stomach for the first hour. Me and Andrew shotgun 3. We go to 5 different bars/clubs and get free shots at the door. Drink long islands...The last bar is around 2am. We walk in and start doing shots with some Italians. We finally decide to hit the lou and leave. We step outside. It's 6am and the sun is coming up. We are lost and wasted. 10 euros later a cab has us at our hostel. It was a long day after that walking around Rome, the Colleseum, and the Vatican...still drunk!

Florence:

This one doesn't invlove getting shit-faced. We stayed at a hotel called Leonardo House. Andrew and I are both IT guys they have computer trouble. We managed to fix their office PC and the free internet PC for them. It took us about 4 hours of work combined to get everything in order. Trying to install Windows in Italian is always fun when you know zero of the language. We got them both up and running. The owners then insisted that they pay us. We tried to refuse but ended up wtho 40 euros and a bottle of really good Italian wine. They also want us to do their website for the hotel. Amazing the stuff you find, huh?

I will add more later.

I hear you man, the amsterdam story is all too familiar! And now i realise why amsterdam has canals, finally, its to let you puke cleanly!

I was going to say the same thing.

But it looks like you saw some good stuff besides McDonald's!

foofiter · 06-20-2005, 12:44 PM

We did that becuase most of the time it was late, we were drunk, and hungry. I ate a ton of local food but no pics of that really. Mind you this is over the course of 2 weeks and thats just 3 meals.
