Over at The Bellas official website, Brie made a brand new blog!

Last April after Wrestlemania we left for our European tour. Nikki and I were only on the first part of the tour, so we thought to ourselves why not stay in Europe for a week and see our roots in beautiful Italy. That’s just what we did! Venice, Verona and Rome.

The best part of our tour in Italy was our tour guide, Santino Marella. We couldn’t of asked for a better person to show us such an amazing country.

Like you see in the movies Italy is as beautiful in person. The architect, the colors, greenery and of coarse the History. Your constantly having your breath taken away.

The Food…..OMG!! Unbelievable…we ate like kings and queens, enjoying every bite. Nikki who doesn’t eat cheese couldn’t enjoy it as much as me, but every meal was mouth watering. It’s funny because one day we were getting Gelato in Verona and for some reason the lady didn’t want to serve us. Well, that didn’t sit well with Nikki. So Nikki and the Gelato lady are going back and forth and out of the corner of my eye I see another ice cream spot. I grabbed Nikki and we went and got gelato from this other cute little joint. Well Nikki always having to have the last action walked to the lady and went “MMMMmmmmmmmm!!” and gave her gelato the biggest lick….while I was in the background shaking my head. And of coarse The lady gave her the stink eye back. Then we walked over and put our hands on Juliet’s breast…….ok so it was a statue, but it means good luck……hhhhmmmmm maybe Juliet’s breast helped me win the Diva’s title. (juliet, I’m meaning Romeo and Juliet, Shakespeare, which took place in Verona).

The shopping…. I know why Italians are the best dressed!! Everyone has heard it before, but Italy truly has the best shopping. The style, to material, to the sexiness mixed with class….it’ll make any girl crazy! And YES ladies the men will make you crazy there too!!!! Everywhere Nikki and I walked it was unbelievable how the men made us feel. Compliments, blown kisses, whistles…I was in Heaven!!

Sorry guys I know what you are thinking….food, shopping, men..what is this..well what I’m describing is a women’s wonderland…our Heaven. Don’t feel left out, we do need Men!!

Our last night, the three of us, Santino, Nikki and I are having a great dinner. We are reminiscing over our trip, wishing we could stay forever. As we toast to our trip with our silky smooth red wine a Volcano decides to erupt!!

That’s right you all should remember that crazy event, the Iceland Volcano. The ashes were so bad that pretty much every airport in Europe was shutting down. My first thought was, Getting trapped in Italy isn’t so bad then immediately my second thought pushed my first one right out…..Monday Night RAW.

World War 3 had started!! All flights were cancelled, not booking people for a month later. People sleeping at airports, bathing in the restrooms. Fighting everywhere because your waiting in 8 hour lines and people would try to cut. It became a nightmare!!! Now the beauty about this part is Santino got out, he had the last flight, but the Bellas got stuck. It was Nikki and I double teaming anyone who got in our way….did we get into arguments, Hell Yeah!!! We became heels in a quick second. To make a long story short, WWE came to the rescue and got us out of there. We made just in time for RAW.

Crazy how you can be in your dream world…..everything going perfect, feeling good, simply loving life….and in one second, one eruption, your dream quickly goes into a nightmare. But I guess that’s life!

Here’s a quote from Shakespeare “if music be the food of love, play on”

……it sounded so Italian to me

Ciao,

Brie
