The Latest

It's been somewhat of a crazy week here in Roma. It's hard to believe that the metros crashed, we kind of figured all of those were ran by computers in this day and age. Since the metro line was shut down all of the busses were completely packed and then some. Charles was on a bus where there was a pickpocket and some tourist got robbed of their cell phone and wallet. It was a really crazy thing to be a part of because basically everyone is helpless to do anything for the guy. By the time you notice your wallet is gone, so is the pickpocket. To be honest, it really makes you go "damn, glad it wasn't me" as cold as that may sound.

And now, something not so depressing. Allie and I have just finished another successful week of earning money. It feels great to be close to having a month's worth of earning in our little hands. Please believe we will have a tight grip on that bundle during the bus ride home. We are in the midst of planning some day trips outside of Roma which should be pretty fun and also easy on the pocket. Allie is drastically improving her tennis game everytime we play.
