Fuck you ROME!!!!!!!!!!

Hotel, McDonalds, Hotel, Ruin, Church, Hotel, Church, Ruin, McDonalds, Church, etc..........

Pretty much summed up my experience in Rome. Rest of Italy was OK.

after webmaster access my girlfriend and I went to rome for 2 nights.

we get off the plane. they lost our luggage

we get into a cab - supposed to be about $50 - he charges us $120

we get to hotel - hotel confirms he ripped us off.

Hotel tells us they want to relocate us to another hotel 3 miles away. would require cabs to see everything instead of walking. call expedia - they fix it. took an hour.

get into room - it's 1/2 the size they say it was - oh well - it's a bed - no biggie

walk to the collesseum. basically assousted by all the street people -they are super rude. take some pics of the background - one demands I pay him cause he was in the background. I tell him to fuck off, he gets mean. I look him in the eyes in my northern way and nicely say fuck off. He realizes I'm about to tear him to peaces so he walks away.

go for pizza. it's a picture menu. they bring the wrong pizza out. waitress says it's the right one but it has no toppings. serioulsy fucked up - anyway we are starving so we eat it.

back to hotel and book a tour. VERY clear about a convertable bus in english. they say ok, get picked up to goto bus and tour group says convertable bus in english. Get loaded on bus - it's a regular bus and the only english is get on and get off - the rest was german. AND we are at a window with a fucking decal on it advertising the tour group so we can't see fuck all. We bail on this 1/2 way though and walk 3 miles or more back to hotel.

in room for about an hour and suddenly we BOTH get VERY sick. Fod poisioning from the pizza. next 24 hours are HELL - basically loose most of our time in rome due to this.

order water and extra toilet paper from room service - they bring up 4 bottles, no toilat paper. they open one - bottle top opener thing the waiter has. hour later we want the next bottle - there is no bottle opener in the room. we call room service. SHe comes up and opens the next one but says they have no bottle openers to leave. uggggg. finally get more toilet paper.

anyway we leave pissed about the entire country. several days now and I'm STILL fucking sick. I threw up 2 hours ago and direreea every fucking day.

only good thing is i've lost 10 lbs but i was working weights a lot and i think it's pretty much only the muscle i lost.

did i mention i now HATE italy - don't go there

I have actually seen gypsies throw their babies at tourists while in Rome. The dumb tourists catch the little fucker in their arms and then other gypsy kids swarm and pick their pockets.

Passports are handed out way too easily. There should be a test for minimum competance to travel
