Vatican drama...



I was most impressed with the Vatican,everything else we had seen had been set in amongst the buildings in the city but the vatican was out on it's own and it looked so impressive. I was trying to imagine the millions of people that would have filled it when the last pope died.

The drama there involved Isaac,Shayela's brother leaving his backpack sitting against a railing and us going off to a cafe.it was only as we were leaving the cafe that it was noticed that it was gone and we raced back to the vatican to find it in exactly the same place as he had left it!was lucky as there was a $2000 video camera in it!amazing it was still there as there were hundreds of people around,anyone of them could have lifted it as it had been sitting there for over an hour!

The rest of the weekend dramas involved both shayela and her mum having problems getting access to any cash due to pin-number issues.i unfortunately couldn't offer any help as i had no money or cash cards!

on returning back through the train station that i'd had my wallet stolen we asked again to see if anyone had found it,i was hoping to even just get my wallet back as there was sentimental stuff in it.the guy there then produced a plastic bag full of wallets - they had all been stolen from people that day!!!unfortunately mine wasn't there and even after the guy so kindly went and looked along the train tracks for me,there was still no sign of it.aw well,it wasn't meant to be obviously!

despite all the disasters that happened,i did still have fun with shayela and her family and we were able to laugh about it all at the end of the day,i mean much worse things could have happened!

i was extremely sad to say goodbye to shayela again as i honestly don't know the next time i'll get to see her,but at the same time it was nice to get home after all the dramas!
