    Getting TO/AROUND: All the cars in Rome are very small. It's weird at first (if you're from the US). It took us a day or to get used to all the traffic and the (absense) of traffic laws.

    All motorcycles will scoot up to the red light and take off before all the cars and buses. Those poor bus drivers, they are excellent drivers. It must be like a horse swatting annoying flies buzzing around them.

    Anyways, it's really interesting. You'll see more motorcylces than anything (and not the Kawasaki). They are fully loaded and very environmental. Al Gore would be proud...
