This was one of our dream trip which we were planning for a long time..As usual it was the joining of old combination Anand and family along with us.
We started our trip on May 31 to celebrate Arthi's birthday on the next day. We reached Rome the same night. This was one of the most unforgettable birthday for her. Our flight reached on time and we took a rented car to the camping village (Roma Camping Village)...That was a very special camping place. Anand And Nandhini surprised Arthi with a cute little birthday gift! After cake cutting, (I was tasting cake after ages :-)) we went to our bed.
The next day morning, we took a shuttle and visited Vatican City and took a city tour around Rome.
We visited Colossium...and not to forget the Great Vatican church. We tasted our first Pizza near the Vatican Museum. I should confess that it was very very tasty. After lunch, we started our journey to the Vatican Church which was one of the largest in Europe. Also, this is the Church where the Pope resides. This is what I came to know after my brief research ;-)
The same night we visited Colossium.
The next day morning we started our journey to Pisa and Venice....
Leaning tower of Pisa was not very great except for the leaning type of construction. May be I was not excited because I had seen Eiffel and Koln Cathedral earlier..
The same night we had our dinner in an Indian Restaurant named India.. The food for a change, was very nice...
The next day morning we started to Venice... We reached there in the evening...
Venice was breathtaking to say the least... Very well planned city(though the latest study suggests that Venice is slowly sinking)
We could see lots of restaurants especially sea food and Pizzeria...
We had a nice boat ride.. I was pulling Arthi's legs by showing her a lot of water taxis...
We had a nice dinner at a Pizzeria..
The next day we went around the city... This was the last day of the trip...
With mixed feelings, I was roaming around...
Our flight was at around 8 PM which we caught after some immigration..
The flight was one of my most hopeless flight.. Finally we reached Brussels at around 11 PM...
On the whole, it was a fantastic trip in which I tried my hands at car driving... Driving in Europe is like a dream... Still wonder how come everyone is so disciplined... Hope to drive more in future!!
Adios
