Sup dude? I'm in Budapest. The baths are splndid (especially the wave one). I'm sorry I don't have much to say.

Fun Fact: Budapest is made of two cities: Buda and Pest. We are staying on the Pest side of the river.

Monday, Venice

Yo! I'm in venice now and have ridden two boats -- excluding the Navigator of the Seas!. This morning in Florence I climbed 463 steps to the top of a dome with dad. Goodbye for now!

PS If you haven't noticed, we aren't in Rome anymore!

PPS The power thing broke and now we can't charge my DS (I am not happy!)

Rome/Pompeii, Tuesday

'Sup Dude! Pompeii was actually boring. Maybe its because I'm "ruined" out from seeing so many on the vacation so far. I'm starting to learn what some italian words mean, take 1 minuto for example, probably means 1 minute! Ciao!

PS Yesterday we walked through a crazy garden (the Villa Borghese) and rode a crazy bike for four people!

Sunday - Rome

We departed the Navigator to a bus and roade to a spot where we walkd three blocks to a train ride. We couldn't fit on the first train and ended up standing on the 2nd one! We rode a private car to our apartment. It has PLENTY of space! We walked to an ice cream (gelato) shop. Then a medium sized grocery store which is more like a very small sized grocery store! We saw a VERY famous fountain. A little more ice cream and back.

Arrivederci! (good bye in Italian)

- Jack

PS I ate at a place with peanuts and buffers that I ate at when I was 3.5 years old. Back in time: "I love peanuts and buffers. I want a peanut buffer and jelly sandwich"

Thursday/Friday

Turkey -

In Turkey, we went to more ruins, home to one of the 7 wonders of the ancient world. I was like the "picture" dude. The next day, we went to Crete. More ruins, except they were BORING! Then we went to a city. The good thing is that we got great ice cream. It was a bazillion second walk back to the boat. bye!

PS: I sat on ancient toilets in the ruins in Turkey.

Wednesday - Navigator/Athens

Kalimera! (Good Day in Greek) Today I went to Athens, Greece. There we saw ancient Athens, one of the most famous ancient places in the world! Ya Jealos? huh? huh? :) You can also call it the Parthenon and the Acropolis. I was quite amazed! At night we did a pirate play, sponsored by the letter Rrrrrr..
