I'm sick...

I'm sick...

I got sick from a combination of too little food, too little sleep, and too much booze. And now I'm walking around in 30 degree heat feeling cold and coughing like a 70-year old with emphazima (correct? who knows/cares... I'm fuckin sick).

I have slept till 2 the past two days, so tonight we take the long ride into Rome to see it by night. If it weren't for the pool here, I would probably be dead right now.

So let me describe today's video to you which is impossible to upload (unless you donate 3 euro by secure money transfer):

OPENS WITH: John hungover and coughing like a ridiculous fool. Stuart behind the camera laughing and speaking with a wrecked voice.

CUT TO: Random shot of MASSIVE party table at our hostel filled with awesome people.

CUT BACK TO: More John hungover.

Repeat.

Gotta go now, but you get the idea.

Cheers and ciao,

John from Canada

Sounds like you two need some recovery time.. find some shade, take a day or two off travelling and read a couple of books...

Rome wasn't built (or visited) in a day...

clean water, fruit, juices, lots of NONALCOHOLIC liquids, some pasta, and you'll survive... sleeping during the day in the heat isn't as restful as sleeping in the cool or the night, so get more of it if you can, or do both until you're healthy...

What Nathan said... bugspray will do that for you.

Feel better, try to enjoy Italy as best you can, all that jazz...

Wow, I was so used to seeing videos everyday... This leg of the trip, though awesome for you guys, makes me reminisce about the ol' Chester Street days.

Then I think of British John.

Oh, well... Enjoy Rome!

Lots of fluids, definitely only of the non-alcoholic variety, light solids like boiled or poached eggs and plenty of sleep at night (when we are meant to sleep, not carouse all night long)and maybe aspirin if you've got aches and pains, and you'll probably get over it quickly

This is not healthy.

It is indicative of over indulgent parents who permitted binge drinking to occur!

Shame on all of you!

I love you guys. Having been over a week since we've had any kind of post, I can only assume that your travels are winding down and that the blog has come to some sort of a close (or soon will).

I have to say that I have loved checking on here every day (and then every weekday) with excitement and anticipation, to see what crazy antics you have gotten up to, or what creative video-works you had vlogged up. I will miss your blog, but will continue to have my guffaws in your best of section... and have already started re-watching your videos from the beginning.

Oh and anonymous, I'm not sure if you realized this, but Stu and John from Canada are traveling without their parents. So maybe, and by maybe I mean definitely, you should stop shaming the good and kind creators/watchers of this blog and reveal your name -- and/or just quit being such a jerk.

PS I hope you are not still "mesty" up.
