Courtney, Nikki, Nadia, Carrene, Natalie, Carmen spend four days in Levanto Italy.
Bonjourno!
Okay, I know I haven't been posting enough. But you see, I'm not going to have internet at my apartment for another 12 days........
So all updates are essentially done at work, and not that I can't justify blogging during work hours it's just that....... well I can't.
BUT
Last weekend, I went to Italy. Cinque Terre to be exact. I went with Nadia, Nikki, Natalie (me), Carmen, Carrene, and Courtney (yes, you couldn't come on the trip unless your name started with N or C).....
We took a train from Geneva to Milano, and then from Milano to Levento (which is where our hostel was). The hostel was beautiful, nothing like I imagined (What I imagined: small, foggy, hot room with rubber mats on the floor, and a small square window with bars, and a single toilet in the middle.... okay, I IMAGINED a prison cell).... But this was very nice!!! HUge room with 3 bunk beds and two giant closets and a bathroom with a shower and a toilet and a beday (I don't think anyone used that though)....
We explored the 5 cities and I'll put up some of my favorite pics below... You get to each city by train and it's just totally magical. To learn more about Cinque Terre go here: http://homepage.sunrise.ch/homepage/avong/cinque_terre/

My favorite city was Manarola. Mostly because I took this picture.... It was so colourful.
I really enjoyed walking everywhere and trying not to look like a stupid tourist but still looking like a stupid tourist, "Oh wow!! Look at that!! Isn't that CUTE?? There's a cat sleeping in that pot! Oh gosh, get the camera! Look, there's some GELATO! Who wants Gelato? Let's get a picture eatinv Gelato here. SIr? Scuzi! Scuzi!! Will you taka a pictura ofa me and my friends eating GELATO!!!!?????" (Slightly paraphrased).....
Okay, that's all I have time for today, but I'll post more on Italy and keep an eye out for the following features... "How Carman Sprained her Ankle..." "Who would buy a shirt that says 'Sex Bomb?" and "Riding the Trenatalia".
