This window just reminded me of Helen for some reason ... |
How much is that doggie in the window? |
Especially for Abbey - a Frenchie in Italy! |
Upstairs at "Tech It Easy" in the Galleria Alberto Sordi (aka "the mall") |
Can you imagine giving this knife block as a newlywed present? |
Fay asked me to pick up one of the Martini map bags for her. Apparently they are hard to come by in the United States. |
But Martini's bags were darn near everywhere in Rome! (Literally, in every shopping area, Martini had a window. He even had a display in the airport.) |
Yes, you're seeing those prices correctly. The wallet (far left, upright) is €89.00 ($132.50) and the coin purse (above, lower left corner) is €22.00 ($32.75). |
They are nice looking and well-made bags nonetheless. |

And this one reminded me of Casey for some reason. |
Fay's mother-ship. |
I'm sure it doesn't mean the same as "gaudy." |
For Cindy! |
I'm not ashamed to admit that the prices of pretty much everything in Rome left me shell-shocked. |
This one was hard to get into a decent photo but it's also for Casey. |
Al: "Look, over there - an outdoor cigarette vending machine." Joy: "No, honey - that vending machine is selling condoms." |
THIS was the cigarette vending machine - right there on the street. |
The Campo de Fiori market had a lot of t-shirts for sale ...
|
... and a good number of them focused on the Simpsons for some reason. |
A store for Ginger ... |
... and one for Helen. |
The Polish Office of Tourism in Rome - for Izzy. |
For the discriminating cyclist, a nicely appointed specimen from Ferrari. |
And Ferrari's version of a race car. |
