Euro Trip '09
on trinh's travel map.
6 days in Bari, Italy! Nonna's home cooked lunch was great! Gloria's family took care of us really good. We had our own house to stay in. All three meals made for us. Took us out to the beach.
Highlights
- a full Italian lunch - first plate, second plate, cherries, gelato and expresso
- seafood - Italians love raw seafood like oysters, mussels, clams, squids, octopus.
- the beach - sand like our beaches but clear water!
- punzorrotti - similiar to pizza pop
- burratina - it's a ball of mozzarella cheese with butter inside of it... taste better than it sounds
- Italian hospitality - we were treated like bambino!
I departed Gloria, Sonia, and Gloria's family early this morning. I caught the 8:15AM Ryan Air to land at Bologna around 9:30AM. Walked around town for a bit and finally settle into the hostel after 2PM. Internet is free at the hostel because of technical issues. A bonus for me =).
Tomorrow I'll be heading to Ducati Museum. Ferrari is too far to get to by bus. Busing is cheap in Italy. One euro to get on and the ticket lasts for 60 minutes.
Post more later!
