hi all :) i just came back from 2 weeks italy and it rocked! rome was sooo cool, there's too much to see there, venice and florence rocked too (as did the tower in pisa :D ). i kinda have bad memories about milano (sorry Woofer ;) ) since i got stuck by accident in that city, i took the wrong turn on the highway and all of a sudden i was in the centre, took us about and hour to get back on the track :\ only thing that drove me nuts were the crazy fuckers in the traffic! christ! they drive like complete fools over there, still i'd recommend italy to everyone, shame i didn't have more time to spend there :( of course it's good to be back home too :) so what's going on here lately? did i miss anything? |

morning morton. You missed a few people whining about the board and wanting it to be shut down. Haha, nothing out of the ordinary |
||||||||
|
|

i went to italy for 2 weeks at the start of June. I did rome, florence and pisa. It was fuckin ace. Rome is definately the best out of the three, but man, HOW MUCH graffiti can one city have?!? |
||||||||

i'm happy you liked italy. well, in milan we really drive like mads, and it's not easy to find the right way if you lose the right track. too much traffic here, fortunately i live in a little country near to Milan (about 12km) and here i live better. anyway all weekend nights i'll go in the centre of milan for discopub, club, disco, shops, etc... the life run quickly in milan, so we're used to drive fast, and i had problems in Ibiza, 'cos i thought they were too much slow especially during the rounds. too much stress here in milan, my friends... |

|
|
did you go to any of the places in rome i mentioned? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|

|
WTF YOU MUST GO TO ROME its great and youre italian. it makes sense. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Morton, did you see the big church "DUOMO" in the centre of Milan? And the imponent Sforza's castle? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Did you go to that place wherre that film was shot? the one with Bruce Lee in it? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
that's a "cult movie" |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
can't remember seeing those, i was only focussing on the traffic (read: nutscases on scooters).. but isn't there a duomo in florence too? i'm confused.. :\ i went on that thing with those fucking stairs, i thought the trip up never ended the view at the top was rewarding though :) zeus: see your thread :) anus: i don't know what the hell you're talking about |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Haha |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yes, there's a duomo in florece too. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Italy was for me, a land filled with culture and great food, populated by 80% assholes, with fucking scooters. Sorry, but i really feel that way. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
what you have to understand, is that thats just how italians are. they dont have lines, they dont follow traffic rules etc... but if you actually talk to them and be nice, or if they are your friends, they are the nicest people seriously. its just how they are. I personally love italians. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I hope to be in the other 20%... |
||||||||
|

||||||||
|
|

|
|

||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|

||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|

||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i agree... eheheh :) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
you have to wonder how hard it would be to go in and take over a small african country hmm... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yeah, i imagine... hot... dirt... no food... no water... :-/ |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I mean, is that an unrealistic goal? isn't it on par with say, wanting to be an astronaut or wanting to play for major leage baseball? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Damn it Padova never even got a look in! Next time you have to visit. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|

||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|

Still alive but kind of pissed off XLTronic hasn't got it's game together. I've been waiting ages for the ultimate resource that Phob has been working on. Is it 18 months we have been in this messagebaord limbo? Woofy have you got any reccomendations for places so see in Tuscany? Not the obvious ones mind you, I have seen Florence, Pisa etc... |
||||||||
|
|

|
|
"kind of pissed off XLTronic hasn't got it's game together" i'm not even gonna comment that. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
You know I love ya Phob and you are doing all of this for the common good. Its just it has been quite a while... I can't get with watmm and always much prefered your site. (grovel, grovel) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yeah, go to visit "San Giminiano" , a beautiful medioeval place. Check for a place where sleep there and enjoy your holiday. (Don't forget to taste RED WINE and OIL there) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Sho' nuff! I was planning on going there and Lucca too. Will report back when all is done. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
ok ;) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Yes, i know you are by just being here on this board =) But its just me, being sour over italy. It was the first place where someone tried to steal my wallet, and people were generally really unpleasant. I might just been really unlucky, so.... And also, berlusconi annoys me, yet, he's one of the funnier politicians!! So basically, i had some bad experiences, but dont take it personally! =) Peace. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
unfortunately i don't like a lot of things about italians too, and i believe you when you say that someone tryed to steal your wallet :-/ where did you go in Italy? North, South, where? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
'nother plus is that the italian chicks aren't bad at all :) still i prefer asian and french women though, but italian women make a good third btw: woofer, you live in italy, i don't Morton - WooferAttack = 1 - 1 |

Woofy: Do you know the Val d'Orcia near Sienna? |
||||||||
|
|

Thanks fo rthe links. I need to find some camping spots around there. |

Welcome back, Mor :) I enjoyed my stay in Italy as well, but I have to agree with you: Italians are insane when it comes to driving. We witnessed a car accident there. Van driving backwards with 50 km/h or so ran over a cyclist. Not the prettiest sight :\ Italian women however, are very sightly! I am jealous of you, Woofer :( |
||||||||
|
|

| |||||||||
|
|
They are meant to be the maddest drivers in the world |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
My recent trip to Sicily confirms they are the bottom of a very dirty barrel when it comes to bad driving. |

Went to Rome. I suppose the tourist place nr 1in Italy does not give a realistic image of Italy. I can only imagine how someone would view Denmark, had they only seen Copenhagen. The real gold is always out in the country. One cool as fuck incident in Italy, was this. I was riding in a bus, that couldnt make a turn because of a car that was parked wery bad. We sit and wait for about 10 minutes or something, untill this like exact copy of Hulk hogan, in a suit comes along and lifts the car away! it was a small car yes, but i couldnt stop laughing. Then everybody in the bus cheered at him.... Wery cool guy i must say. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
lol!!! an exact copy of hulk hogan... uahahaah... in italy you can meet also exact copy of ultimate warrior, randy savage "macho man" and sometime "the undertaker" :) anyway you should try to visit north's italy too and not by bus. (one time an exact green copy of The Incredible Hulk lift up a bus in front of me...) |
