Phase Three

Ok, no question mark on this keyboard, well at least I can not get to it.

I kind of ended in the middle of the Germany trip, last time I blogged.

Basically we headed back through Austria this time to avoid the traffic. No such luck, then it rained so hard, it flooded Germany, Switzerland AND Austria.. I didnt do it!! *short version*


Today was the last full day we had the rental car, so we went back down to Naples to see Pompeii.. We actually got in this time!

The joke of the day for me was.. Hey Jess, look over there... MORE RUINS!!! She was pretty mad after the first 30 times I said it to her..


Trust me, once you see the people they dug up, it-s no fun anymore, at least to me. But Jess loved it, it is HUGE, the people in front of us were Americans, saying they had an hour and a half to do it... Fools.. We were there like 3 hours, it was too hot, no water anywhere to be found, etc, so we left. But you could spend way more time there....

Of course Mt Vesuvius was sunny, but we had taken too long at Pompeii, so no looking into the volcano.

Pictures will be online tomorrow.

Right now we are in a mini crisis. Funds getting low.

Jess is waiting in Italy until her books that she shipped from the US come, that could be another week or two. We have the apt until Oct 1st, and can legally be in Italy until the 3rd of Oct, but I need to start making money.

The plan is for me to fly up to Germany this Sunday night. You can fly Ryanair for 40 euros, takes two hours. Then I can stay in a hostel and look for work and a place to live.

Ryanair is one of my friend Eric-s airlines.... YEAH!

Hopefully getting that will coincide with her, then I will rent a van, drive it down to Italy, pick up the gang, and drive back up to Germany.

Boy, it is getting interesting now!

I have applied to a ton of civilian jobs at the military bases in Germany, and about 6 private companies.

OK Wayne, before you say anything about how come I would work for the US if I want out of the country, hey. We get paid dollars and spend them in Germany...... Plus we are not in the US......
Though I would much rather have a German job that gets paid in euros, I will take what I can get right now!

Ok, going to do some job searching, will post photos of Pompeii tomorrow.

BYE!
