When in Rome, do as the Romans do

Which is a lot easier than doing as the French do in Paris.

The French seem to have the attitude that if you are in their country, you should speak their language. The Italians on the other hand, realise that this in unrealistic and arrogant, their signs are all in Italian, English, French and German. The people here are much more friendly too.

We are here for a couple more days, taking it easy to try and get over our colds. The rain outside does not help. Once it settles down a bit, we will go and find one of the open top double decker tour buses and see the sights.

No pics at the moment as I am using the free internet in the foyer of the hotel. Hopefully, by the end of our stay here I will have found the apostrophe key on this keyboard.
