Rome

I've made it to Rome and wow it's been a busy few days
The traffic here is enough to stress any-one out, I think it's warming me up for my travels to Asia.
being a cyclist here would scare me and i was a bicycle courier for 4 years... i think thats saying something...but when the rules are ... "there are no rules"...... it gets scary. (half of me still likes it ) but i must be getting old cause i'm more cautious.
Good news on the traffic front , i got really lost yesterday and drove to the Colosseum .. which was awesome. ( i filmed it whist driving very badly)

Then i slept like a dead man.
And here begins day two,

Today was an epic day of meeting swimmers coaches and some managers.
I love hanging with these open water swimmers, for top end swimmers they are just so mellow.
An example , All of there races have been postponed due to bad seas, no-one knew where the new event would be held until this afternoon and no-one really seemed to be upset.. they all just said "ohh well have to train for a few more days"....Great guys and girls thata these open water swimmers are.

Featured in the Picture with yours truley is Poliana of Brazil, a very accomplished open water swimmer and Olympian. Not to mention an awesome person and peir amoungst the open water swimmers. (hopefully i'll be able to get some swimming shots of her over the next few days)
i'm sure she's going to rock it.

I have a few video clips that need posting , so i'll get on that tomorrow.
Cheers
Guy
