When in Rome

which I am. It's been a long day/night seeing as the time difference between Italy and Missouri is ridiculous. I'm am just sitting in the airport and Sam is sleeping right next to me. It's pretty hectic in here but a lot more relaxed than an American airport. My day started at 7:30 am leaving for the airport in st. louis. We had to catch our rent a car. Which in fact is actually called Dollar. I know, it's weird. Our driver sang us christmas songs. I think he specifically said, "I'm in rare form and ready to perform." So I guess you could say the day started off pretty well. lol. Then it was off to Chicago. Longest drive of my life. Sort of. We stopped off at Subway for breakfast. Which is always a good plan. Subway any time of the day is alright with me. Hours later we get to the airport, but first we had to have a coffe break. Haha. It was delicious.

We waited for a bit at the airport but finally borded. I was in the middle seat in the middle aisle. WORST SPOT EVER. Airplanes are really not that practical. It was small and uncomfortable but at least I got to sit next to Sam. And the movies they played weren't all that bad either. First movie was UP. Helloo! That movie is amazingly funny. I slept on and off. The guy next to me seemed to do the same. But first he pulled out Harry Potter 6. To be honest with you and hopefully i don't sound racist or offensive, but I've never seen a grown black man watch Harry Potter. It was awesome to say the least. BTW the toliets are no good.

So now I'm just relaxing in Rome. The fashion here consists of deisel shoes and poufy jackets. A lot of women wear boots here. It's just all around fancy. I look like a hobo. Skinny Jeans, converse untied, beanie and skate shirt. Typical American.
