AS Roma!


Last night as Cole and I were walking back from the girls apartment (they have an internet connection) we witnessed the mayhem that followed AS Roma's (Rome's soccer team)win in the Italian Cup 2-1 over Inter Milan. The streets exploded with action as the AS Roma fans, scarves and all, lit fireworks, sang their fight song, and were just plain rowdy. Horns blared long into the night, even on our usually quiet little street, so sleep was hard to come by last night. Check out the full story (in English) .http://www.blogger.com/img/gl.link.gifhere.
When we woke up this morning, the streets were back to normal and Rome continued its Sunday tradition of relaxation. As if nothing had happened the night before.

Haha very entertaining, thanks for the comment by the way, very grateful for that.

Italy is now a place I want to fly to, as a pilot or passenger. I have heard its a beautiful and colourful country but now I like the sound of it!

Keep up the good work :)
