Rainy day, not for my tune... hooray!
Well, the weather did a good trick today, and after having been extremely sunny for more than a week, it's come up with a sudden rainwash in the afternoon, so Rome became the usual chaos of traffic jams, too much covered girls and never appearing buses :-)
Luckily, rain seems to get people in the right mood to put their best outside, so my travel adventure to the train station has been remarkably made interesting by an old man coming from Sardinia, who kept me and the entire bus very entertained explaining us that his last years have been spent writing a dictionary to translate between Sardinia's own dialect and italian, and vice versa, all with a lots of both voluntary and involuntary humour about Italy and himself.
This short and very light fighter (his words!, he was very eager to state "150cm, 39Kg, Can't go to Trieste or the wind will fly me away!") kept us entertained, and then hooked me and a friend of mine under the pouring rain to explain us why his work was important... while we were almost missing our train... I think I couldn't have asked for more!
The day is quickly coming to an end (19 minutes), and I am extremely sleepy due to swimming and very heavy eating, God bless fat men like me! :-)
