The Eagle has landed.... in Italy!

Alright, after 20 hours of flying I finally made it to my final destination, Italy! I flew from Phoenix to Chicago, Chicago to Frankfurt Germany, Frankfurt Germany to Bologna Italy. I then took a bus from Bologna Italy to Ravenna. That now puts me here at the Holiday Inn in Ravenna Italy. It is a 4 Star hotel with great amenities. Italy is a lot like the mid-west as looks go. It is very green and lots of hills. It is quite easy to get around, lots of people speak English over here. I learned in the airport from some nice old man that Italian is the first language and English is the second language. I told hi that in Arizona that English is the second language as well. He didn't get it. I have included a video of our circus act of a plane flight here. The airport is more like a warehouse with a lot of random doors with people lined up like cattle. You give the lady your ticket, you line up, get on a bus that drives you to the middle of the runway where there is a plane there. After the cattle exit the bus they all run for the "presidential" stairs that lead to the door of the plane. Let me tell you it is a complete ZOO!!
