Day four, August 21 , 2010


I wake up late at about 9:00 ( All Those late night adventures at Harry's bar) . I Have big decision to make, go jogging or get down to breakfast before it ends at 10:00. I Decided on the jog . The Referred to the breakfast just for a chance to meet -up with fellow travelers Some (or to catch the sweet sounds of ABBA .. haha) , But No One Seems to Want to Strike Thus to ups and conversation as I Mentioned before the breakfast Is Not the biggest I can taste treat carb Those keeping off pounds Seems the best choice for today . I go for the jog on the Same route as previous . The waterfront is really active is Now That Is A little later in the day and the the temperature is starting to sizzle . There are huge crowds of toursist going on walking tours and enjoying the views . I spot a green and white car ferry in the distance , " I Could Be at home " is my thought ( expect for These surrounding ancient buildings ) and it makes me feel comfortable ( in my soul but not in the body .. the humidity is NW not born . ) I jog about 50 minutes and then snake my way back to my little hotel. The woman at the front desk surprised Seems That I Was out running, I get strange looks with American girl Raised eyebrows is Received as I pick up the key to my room . You Actually Have to lock your room with a real key (U.S. My fellow travelers and I Have Made the mistake in the past thinking That Automatically Locks When the door shut But one must Actually Put That funny metal thing in the lock and turn it! Luckly we not Punished for Technically Advanced Our stuff remained in ignorance and despair Our room leaving it unlocked all day long) .

I shower up and make a plan for the day , Which is just to wander . I choose a new path and find a neat Wide Field (open squares here are All Called campos and only the grand daddy of Them All ... .. St. Mark 's Square Gets to Be Called . There are hundred and seventy little squares / campos here and I think Most Associated Have to church with them. ) I think I am checking out a church at one field and Realize its a hospital ! This gorgeous building houses medical professionals and ill individuals ( amazing ).... and there is a large church next store So You Can Also elicit God's help as well. I Decided to get lunch here in this field . I choose an outdoor cafe . The waiter , Sergio, is a real comedian . He is busy chatting with all the patrons in English and getting Our Life Stories. One Family With Their daughter is there. Sergio Asks what is the daughter and she is studying at the Fashion Institute of Paris . He Tells Her That She Should Do Something More Than Fashion, Beom a doctor ( You Could work right here ) . He looks over my shoulder and reads my Kindle . He Makes Fun of Our Language, why are there enough words like and laugh ... That is crazy with the f sound at the end . " Hey , English is combination of languages and besides I Do not have anything to do with ITS origins " is my response. I Could Pick A Few bones with your language too ... what are these feminine and masculine words all about ? ... How do decide if a table ( or whatever ) is macho or girly ? .. "This is too crazy . " I exclaim . I chat with a young couple next to me from New York City. He is just ending His fellowship in trauma as an orthopedist . See young fashion girl , Could you to vist Italy Some day without your parents if you Become a doctor , WAS Sergio , s comment ( or be in big debt the unless the Mom and Pop can help you out) . Sergio wants to take me for drinks, even though he says he fully discloses That He Is Married . He says I have a nice smile Serg ... thanks for the offer but i do not want to piss off the Italian Spouse and be looking over my shoulder for the Next Two Months ! I Have late meal ( home made pasta with seafood .. muscles , clams and shrimp ) Excellent! I Have now HAD my pasta meal and want a hot ITS cappacino even though (I am in the shade I know why not) . I still need to have my tiramisu But I am too full now for That. I say hello to my new friends and continue my walkabout .

I stop in A Few churches ( Beautiful admiring the architecture , letting my core temperature back and letting a little spirituality Some flow in) . The shop as well , finally Deciding On A Few trickets after looking at many ( I mean many) glass shops. By 6:00, my feet need a break and I feel like a nap , so I head back to my little air conditioned room. I take a short nap and Decides to go out for more exploration . I Have Bought a phone card but i can not make it work on the phone in my room . I head back to the waterfront where I know there are phones (I tried to use These months ago while Trying to get a water taxi to the airport ) . I can not make the card work on These phones Either ( ugh. . I thought I knew how to do this, I am not as seasoned as a thought ) . I Decided to use my cell phone and make an expensive call home ... But hey I Had A 20 dollar drink last night .. I know I want to hear a familar voice and will spend the big bucks on That tonight . I speak with Sister Paula Mom and then she gets to turn on her cell phone and I have a nice little chat with Them both.

I am getting hungry and I want to send a fax for an agreement for my future Aparment contract in Rome . I Decided to do business first so I go to the internet place just down from my hotel. Told I am the Fax does not work here , "Then take down the sign That says you offer this service for heaven's sake " are my thoughts but i do not say it . The Referred again sitting down for dinner But one full meal Seems like I know enough to buy of a slice of pizza and a beer and Bring Them to my room. I enjoy a little picnic in my dorm room ( my room is like this or like a nun in for Hovel .. plain and simple but i do have my own bathroom ) and watch an episode of " 24 " That I Have Brought along. The bed down around 11:00 looking forward to the next step of my journey tomorrow .
