Trieste, Italia

Trieste is beyond beautiful! We spent the day walking along the city's expansive coastline, visiting an Austro-Hungarian-era castle, various watering holes, and the occasional topless beach. We are spending the evening exploring the city center (in centro), eating, and visiting various cafes (James Joyce and F.T. Marinetti both lived and worked here during the early twentieth century).

Tomorrow: MAYBE (forse) Croatia?!

Trieste, Italia (Primo Giorno)

Today is our first of two days in Trieste, Italia. We are on our hotel's complimentary computer right now checking out the various sites/sights and attractions, researching the various bus lines to Slovenia and Croatia (which may happen!), and ... updating our blog. Stephanie has mosquito bites on her left eyelid ... and she just drank some orange juice from a self-serve machine that tasted like it had some sort of a cleaning product in it! ... And Brian has an enormous and somewhat infected pimple on his mouth area. Yes!!! To the road we go ...

Ciao!
