What a Drive. We were fine til about 10 minutes from our destination. In that time We went down train tracks the wrong way and then went into a bus station the wrong way which was explictiedly noted by one bus driver using hand signals. In the end we stopped and asked a policeman how to get to the car drop off sight. He was very nice and really gave good directions … Sort of … We followed his directions and proceeded to get lost again. Not sure how but we did locate the europcar drop location. Dropped off the car and then caught a cab to Campo di Fiorra. The drive with the taxi cab driver taught bunny that I really wasn’t that bad of a driver. 28 euros later we arrived at our destination. We were early so we grabbed the table at a restaurant closest to the door of our place. A bottle of Cianti and 3 bruschettes later Allen shows up to take us to our room. What a view. Here is a video of what’s happening right outside our window at 8 pm at night. It is a spectacular view with lots happening in the square just below our apartment.
That machine in the lower right hand corner is a street sweeper. We call it the italian zamboni.
