About the Roman trip (29th August 2007)

We went to Rome from 22nd of August to 25th of August. It was too hot, but we enjoyed very much. There are a lot of old ruins in Rome. For example, The Colosseo, The Roman Forum, The pantheon and so on. We were surprised and impressed to see these old ruins.

The next day we visited the Trevi fountain where we watched the movie 『Roman holiday』. Of course, we threw a coin over our shoulder into the fountain. We will return to Rome some day.

The last day, we had some trouble. My wallet was taken by the pickpockets. We prepared to get on the train from Rome city to the airport.
The pickpockets were two girls. One of them helped my youngest daughter to get on the train.I helped her,too. then the other pickpocket picked my wallet from my shoulder bag.

Fortunately, My eldest daughter saw this her action. She said"Papa! She picked your wallet!" Then I realized she had picked my wallet.
I shouted to the other passengers,"They are pickpockets. Call a police!"
They were surprised. They threw my wallet onto the ground and ran away.

We felt relieved but from now on we will pay more attention.
However, it was like a magic! It was good experience for us.
