I begin with this picture of my first day in Rome.
I packed the night before. Typical guy right?
I left the great city of Coventry at 510 am. I had woken up at 455 am on the call of the taxi driver and I must say, twas’ quite a harrowing experience, showering, putting product into your hair, moisturising, putting clothes on, and still forgetting to switch my alarm clock off AND forgetting to CLOSE MY WINDOW! Nevertheless, I made out with all my stuff out of the house onto the waiting taxi to take me to Birmingham Airport where I’d begin the first leg of my journey.
The flight from B’ham was at 7 am and took me all the way down to Frankfurt. I was very lucky to be sitting behind a cute girl, BUT, she spent the whole time talking to this ugly guy next to her. Bah. Neverthless I landed and got off the plane tout suite. Frankfurt Airport is huge, but I didn’t think it was as nice as Munich Airport, it did however have more options in terms of food I thought. Munich is a little Meh, and very overpriced. I forget if this picture was of me getting of the BHX-FRA flight or FRA-FCO flight. But anyway here’s an aircraft I was on. I have to say this about Lufthansa’s service, efficient to perfection. The food served on EVERY SINGLE flight was the same. The SERVICE provided was the same, even the words spoken were pretty much the same. Efficiency taken to the extreme, I liked it but it really only made me miss the more personalised service of Singapore Airlines.
So I got to Roma and the first thing we did was go off to Gianicolo, after a hearty dinner at Pizza Al Taglio. It was the name of the style of Pizza as well but all in all very very delicious and SO much variety. Ate way too much and had some Gelato after as well. No pictures because I was TOO BUSY EATING!
