Zingari


I told tom about the Gypsies in Italy, and we went almost a week without seeing any. I thought that that was strange, but then the Bosco family told us that now they dress like tourists. Well, that makes sense. The kid in this picture got on our train in Rome and started up a tape player then got down to some Romanian pop music. Boy could this kid sing (loud). We like the perfoming Gypsies. As the trips progressed we've seen a lot more of them in their traditional garb and such. Today I saw a Gypsey begging at the Cathedral of Florence and a couple of American girls ran up to her and gave her three sacks of food. She sure was happy.

Tom has become obsessed with the gypsies.
