Trieste to Rome
Host made special cake for me for breakfast. Was delicious!
Rode up steep hills back to Travesty to catch a train.
Bought tickets to Rome.
The train was leaving in about 30 minutes so I ran across the street to a market and frantically bought food for the very long train ride.
We had first class tickets and had the while train car to ourselves.
The bike were in a different car in. A bike rack locked for safety.
The train ride was long but pleasant.
We arrived in Rome at 10:30pm.
The train followed the coast and then cut across Italy. Was a very slow train.
Once we were in Rome we rode our bikes our hotel room.
Checking in was. Bizarre and unnerving experience.
They took her to a parking garage where we had to pay additional fund to park the bike
Then we went up a very dilapidated building in an elevator that was scary.
Very glad we are only spending one night.
Went out to get food. Rats fighting in garbage pile.
Just got McDonalds and took it back go the room.
