We had a great 4 course roman dinner tonight, complete with live music, a very animated waiter, and lots of wine. Then we went on another trip around Rome to see the attractions again all lit up.
The highlight tonight was watching the cars (they are mostly small cars) and the motorini (scooters) competing for lanes on the street. (occasionally a three lane road will suddenly become five lanes) We are in a fairly large coach and motorini will actually cut us off and expect our driver to stop. He always does but it is pretty incredible. We refer to these people as "those that want to die". Betty calls it organized chaos. Craziest thing I have ever seen. Lanes mean nothing. Traffic lights mean nothing. People double and triple park. Nothing is enforced.
