Today there were big storms in Rome: wind, thunder, lightening and heaps of rain. We tried to do some shopping but our umbrellas weren't up to it -I'm so sick of 5 euro umbrellas.
At the first sign of rain, umbrella sellers magically appeared from everywhere trying to entice you to buy yet another crap umbrella. I'm going to buy a decent umbrella tomorrow -I'm building up quite a collection at home :)
The guys went to the calcio this afternoon: Roma v Lazio. They have seats in the stands so will be dry for the game but will get soaked on the way home.
Sarah and I stayed close to the apartment and went to Babington's Tearooms. I don't think that there was anyone there who wasn't a tourist. However the tea was good and at 10 euros for a pot it should have been :)
