gelato

My good friend Lizzie has brought it to my attention that the shop dude from yesterday looked like an Italian Ice Cream Seller. Well, he did look a little continental but I would like to point out that it is his brother Pedro who actually sells ice creams. He has a stall outside the Coliseum and sells them to foreign tourists for 10 euros each. He tried selling them on ebay once but it ended in disaster.

  1. Brilliant!! They do look so alike, it's easy to confuse the two!! I think I might have bought a gelato from him on my last weekend jaunt to Roma. ;-)

    1. Yes they are twins Lizzie. I hope he didn't overcharge you, he likes to make money from unsuspecting foreigners.
