30/01/11 (Rimini)






Me and my friends left our town(Kursk) on 29/01/11 around 10pm. We arrived at Domodedovo airport around 5.30am the next day. The place was pretty quiet, though I wasn't sure the usual noisy and busy airport became so silent due to the fact that it was early in the morning or because of the blast that happened not long ago. One thing was sure, the security was tightened. We had to pass through a security check before being able to enter the airport. As we till had much time to kill, we went to the lounge and rest for a bit.
We were traveling to Italy by Ural Airlines to an airport in a small town called Rimini. After boarding the plane, I was pretty much a little disappointed since the flight was devoid of any entertainment, and there weren't any pillows or blanket. Furthermore, the air stewardess were quite rude. The food that were served didn't look very apetizing but at least it taste alright.
Upon reaching Rimini airport, it was slightly drizzling, the airport was a very mini one. After getting our baggages we were leaded by the tour guide to the bus and to our hotel. I was pretty impressed at the hotel as what I had in mind was some very run down motel. After some rest, me and my friends gathered at the lobby and went off to have a walk nearby the hotel.
We wondered around to look for an ATM machine so we could get some money to use for the next few days as we didn't bring much. I was lucky as I got a Maybank ATM card due to the fact that the BSN one was a little bit more troublesome and had some troubles with withdrawing money.
I underestimated the weather and ended up feeling very cold because of the strong wind that was blowing. We had a our dinner in a nearby restaurant which was located near the supermarket Billa.
We returned to the hotel at around 7pm. After taking a hot shower, I went over to my friends room for a game of cards and went to bed around 9pm.
