Our 4 day trip to Italy started on 10th November. In the evening for our train to Rome we had to change 3 trains. One from Grenoble to Chambery and from there to Torino which is the first stop for our entry into Italy and from there to Rome in the night.
For me Italy is Popes, Painters, Pisa, Pizza, Piazza, Poets, political puerility and Potentates and last not the least the cappuccinos. Visited Rome, Florence, Pisa and Venice.

Facts about Italy

Be aware that prices in Italian bars and cafes double (sometimes even triple) if you sit down, Stand and have u r coffee u pay 1.3 Euros sit in the bar and have the same coffee u pay 2.5 and u sit in the cafes and have the same coffee its costs u 5 Euros all this in the same shop. So beware don't tell me that I didn't warn you.

The driving style is pretty same like India so don't worry all u have to do is drive on the other side of the road, which we always do that. So cool no problem at all.

The TV antennas are same like it used to be in India. All houses have at lest 10 -15 of them.

Food u get in plenty don't worry about it at all, U name it u will get it. Watch out the prices normally doesn't include a welcome tax, which can go up to 3-4 Euros in a mid size restaurant per person. So check about this before entering any restaurant. Lets start with the places I have visited in the order listed below
