Note
St. Patrick's Day - did not realize it until we see some green clad revelers. Not to be confused with the many Scots in kilts in town for maybe a rugby event.
Back to San Silvestri via bus 62, though we missed our stop. Got off much later, and I needed a fix, after skipping yesterday. Coke zero, not exactly diet coke, but close enough. Roger claims that this is why he panicked, and he approached a taxi driver at the nearby taxi stand. Or maybe the driver approached us, jumping the queue, and after arguing with the other driver, we drive off. Roger notices that the meter isn't working and asks the guy to start it. He says, no 15 euro, and we say no, meter. He says no, not today, and we say, no, you are ripping us off.
So, we opens the doors, while the taxi is moving, luckily slowly, since he had tried to confuse us by taking us through a rabbit warren of roads. We get out, and realize that we should have just gotten on the same bus going the other way, which we so. Whew, rookie crisis averted.
Get the Disney stamps for the kids and them off to Termini Wine Bar for lunch, followed by gelato and a nap.
Roger still is experiencing lower intestinal distress, but that doesn't stop us from having a noon meal at the Tremini Wine Bar.
Long nap, and quiet time for me follows.
