The Colosseum

Here are some photos from John and my visit to the Colosseum.  
Not pictured: 
1) Native American pan flute players (will somebody please explain this?)
2) Con artists dressed up in awkward gladiator outfits (a little too short there, buddy!)
3) A guy dressed up in a tacky gold mummy suit (we watched for ten minutes and no one gave him any money)
4) Hideous booths packed with sweatshop souvenirs (sorry to those of you who love snow globes featuring the pope)
5) Break-dancing mimes accompanied by mediocre percussion (wow)
You can thank me later.

  1. Haha! Look in the background of your smooching shot. You two were so busy mouth slurping you didn't notice who snuck into your final photo. Pretty much all of the guys you had mentioned as, to quote a well-known classic, "unphotographable" (my spell check needs to listen to more jazz!) They're lurking about acting in strict disadherence to the "when in Rome" rule. So get a magnifying glass and behold "Gold Mummy Guy, Scantily Clad Gladiator, (you'll need a microscope)Break Dancers now having merged with the (Frying) Pan Flute Group and several Snow Globe Popes" (which by the way is an awesome name for a indy band... if your in the market. I mean QFC, not Saturday (that would be too cool) and feel a need to perform independently produced flan flute in front of the frozen peas (don't punch them just to say you fronted for the Black Eyed Peas)but please credit me if you make it to the charts... and send me tickets to your first tribute show at the Coliseum. Could part of my gratitude pack for coming up with name be the honor of announcing:
    "Please welcome to the stage The Frying Pan Flute Group and Several Snow Globe Popes"? I would be so honored to do it.
