I didn't know Chuck E. Cheese started installing water features.

The best part of a vacation is sharing all of your photos with friends and family.
"Here's me at the Trevi Fountain. Here's me beating the cr@p out of a Dutch teenager. Here's the polizia taking me off to jail....".
I have a feeling they're going to have some very interesting pictures.

Now they can post their mugshots to Facebook.

If you think Dave is kidding, not really. You look at the picture of the fountain and you think it's in Cinemascope (ask your Granny), but there is virtually NO room around it. The first time we were there I was shocked. If you want to spread out go to the Piazza Navona, and don't forget to get a real Tartufo.
