Evil Italian Mosquitos...

I forgot to blog previously that in Rome I was attacked by Tiger mosquitoes... every afternoon at dusk, I would close the window, and every night at 2 or 3am when the alcoholics came in, they would open it ("Mosquitoes? What mosquitoes? We never got bitten!").

Nearly a week later, I'm still covered in these itchy itchy bites that won't go away - all over my hands, arms, ankles and neck. Someone recommended some cream that would supposedly fix it in a day, but it's obviously not working.

Note to fellow travellers: when in Rome, pack mosquito repellent.
