Karmyn Ellise: Chow Bella

JULY 2011
Saturday the 16th

Flew to

Italy tonight with our flight arriving very late at night. Finally got to the hotel after our bus and taxi ride. Walked in and WHOOPS the guy had given our room away... Luckily there was a room available just around the corner and the hotel guy was friendly enough so we forgave him!

Sunday 17th

Toured around Milan, such a beautiful city, people weren't much chop though... being new to the whole travelling thing - Jess and I got scammed TWICE in a matter of about 20 minutes! Scam number 1 - Walked up the stairs from the underground and 2 guys where like "Chow Bella, would you like bracelet," No thank you... "no have have" *2 big guys grabbed our wrists and tied a bracelet on there* "5 Euro" WHAAAAAT?!?! 20 minutes late Scam number 2 another guy walked up to us grabbed my wrist put corn in it and said "feed birds" 5 minutes passed, "ok 50 Euro" WHAAAAAT?!?! Jess puts on her angry Voice! "We didn't even want this..." Live and Learn though right :/

Monday 18^th

Went back to Milan City Centre today, went into the Duomo and on top beauitufl veiw of the city up there... Went for a massive walk found an awesome park and an equally awesome bar that had cocktails with tappas sort of things!

Heading back to the train to go home:
Karmyn: Jess have you noticed those two guys following us for the last ten minutes
Jess: No
Karmyn & Jess start to walk faster
Karmyn: Jess they are still following us and they are walking faster now to
Jess: I've noticed as well

Karmyn and Jess turn a corner and leg it. They find a place where there is BULK people and sit down.

Karmyn: Jess those guys are walking towards us

Jess: Karmyn I'm nervous
2 guys start to talk to both Karmyn and Jess in broken English
Guy #1: Hello, why you both walking so fast?

Guy #2: Where are you staying?
Karmyn: to be honest I actually don't know
Jess: Anyway we have to go meet friends for dinner
(Good thinking Jess, lucky one of us are clever)
Guy #1: Dinner with us?
Karmyn & Jess: NO
Jess: Anyway got to go meet our friends now, BYE

Karmyn and Jess walk away as soon as the guys are out of sight Karmyn and Jess PIN IT to the underground station and get on the train - SAFE AT LAST
