Aren't playmobile suitcases so hot right now...?!
From Italy '06 in Treviso, Italy on Jul 12 '06
Well we have certainly seen Treviso train station! We couldn't arrive in our next place until 1500 hours to we just sat and ate biscuits in the station cafe until we plucked up the courage to brave the buses. On a not very interesting but very annoying not - who in their right mind puts toilets in the cafe that you have to get the people behind the bar to press a button to open?! If like Abby the waitress just doesn't like you she doesn't open it and you don't get to pee?! [end of rant].
With the big bag of biscuits we had just munched our way through weighing us down we decided to take a taxi instead since Abby just wanted to get away from the creepy guy who had started talking to her as quickly as possible! The place where we were staying was so cute - a couple run bed and breakfast complete with everything you could possibly want from Ikea. After a brief rest (we had been having a very busy day?!) our new mission was set - we needed suitcases and we needed them fast!
we went in search of something that wasn't going to make us look too stupid...
By some stroke of luck our hostess had walked past a new and reasonably priced luggage shop just the other day, so set with directions we went in search of something that wasn't going to make us look too stupid as we walked the rest of our holiday. Bring on the playmobile-esque bright red and blue hard cases which unbeknown to us at the time give us whopper blisters and have started attacking our legs everytime we walk. It must be quite amusing to watch us as we battle with our cases since they always hit your leg right in the spot that makes you buckle!
So with brand new shiny cases we continued on our way the next day to go to Venice where we would meet up with Ali, Amanda, Lizzy and Jo who had arrived the day before. We spent about 2 hours in the post office shipping our panniers home so that we would have more space in our suitcases to bring all that montenegro home that we want to and then returned to our favourite station cafe to wait for the train...
