Italy - Rainy Always

Just as we touched down from Rimini airport, it rained and rained and rained. We had to hibernate in the hotel as we woke up at 4am to catch the plane on that day.

Explored Rimini, and it seemed very much like a dead place.

Causing a frown on my face. Hahaha.

The next day we went to Ravenna a town up north. Well, it was slightly better I must say.

And what's not having Gelato in Italy? Heee. Though it was really cold, it was a must try.

Towards the evening we went to Rimini's shopping centre. And also tried my first Pizza in Italy! It was really good, fresh from the oven. Ingredients were picked by Malcolm. Pizza Hut just spoils the whole Pizza experience in my opinion.

Next day we went to San Marino, a micro state. With only population of 16k and is located up on the mountains, so what do you expect? Snow.
Heaps and heaps of snow. Nice to look at, not nice to experience. The snow all made my feet numb and I could feel the coldness through my jeans!

Funny picture of a car getting a ticket. There's obviously a reason why the windscreen and the number plate were not covered with snow...

The dinners we survived on. SUPERMARKET FOOD. They taste really good and of course at an affordable price!! :D

Finally our last day we went to Bologna, a really big city. Did some shopping and surprisingly we spent about 7 hours there!! It was more dangerous though. Malcolm could not make me stop laughing with his childish rubbish.

So yeah, that sums up Italy! Well if you're a fan of simply eating and shopping, Italy IS the place for you!!!
