Siena

When we left for Siena it was supposed to be only a five hour drive. Well when the signs are in Italian and your dad is driving a stick shift that he keeps stalling every couple minutes it take nine hours instead. When we finally got the we were starving and still need to find a hotel room; therefore we pulled into good ole Mcdonalds!! Where we had to pay 10 cents for one packet of ketchup and they served beer. Also while you are walking around these lovely little towns if u perhaps have to use the toilets you must pay 50 cents to the random people in the bathroom!! What i noticed on the nine hour drive was most of the cars and scooters run on diesal fuel which is about 1.20 liters which comes out to around 8-9 a gallon. When we found literally the last hotel room in siena and went into our room we had to put the room key into an insert in the wall to turn the electric on.
