Things I like about Italy

1. There are pastry shops everywhere. I loveeeee the lil fruit tart cakes things. they are mini cheese cakes with fresh fruit on top with a sugar glaze....AMAZING! (and typically only 1 euro)

2. Almost every night there is a red sky. the setting sun burns these flame colors into the clouds and sky. so so so beautiful!

3. Everything is old and fabulous. such as the movie theater. It has gold trim and marble sculpture and low relief stuff, just uber cool. it is also 3 levels of fabulous, with lil box seats with fancy velvet chairs. yes no more needs to be said on its amazingness.

4. You can get wine for 2 euros and it is good ass wine too. the most expensive is about 10 euros haha, simply amazing once again!

5. When you order drinks at a bar, it is ALL alcohol and a splash of mixer, mainly for color. Which god damn it that is how they are to be made United States bars!! I ordered a White Russian the other night and the bartender told me they do not carry milk but they use bailey's instead, just more alcohol to the great drink it already is.

6. Bartenders give you free drinks all the time. Liz and I like to sit at the bar, so we can talk to the bartenders and also have easy access to order more drinks and as we have come to find out get free shots rather often!
