Rome Italy - 19 Oct 2006

Was in Rome, Italy followed by Bologna and then Venice for almost a week. did not book any hotels before we flown there, so my wife and I just walked around to hunt down our stays when we arrived at the sites. quite adventurous but a bir risky and at times, costly as we found up when we stayed in Bologna Roma Hotel which cost a bomb, Euro 130 per nite.

Actually, flight from London was canceled due to heavy fog and ended up flying to Parma and then took a train down to Rome. Found up a lot of Bangladeshi in Rome, as the hotel room we stayed is run by a Bangladeshi and souvenirs shops are manned by Bangladeshi.
Even, the Italian restaurant we ate dinner in Venice, I saw the chef was Bangladeshi. Somehow, the wealthy countries rely a lot on cheap labour to work in some of the labor-intensive sectors. That's biz. life, I guess.
