The big news around here is that Italy won the world cup. Our friend Norma Calabrese went to Circus Maximus to see the game and said it was crazy. A bunch of people waited through the night for the team to come back from Germany the next day. There were so many people that some were climbing on the buildings in the Roman Forum to see the spectacle. The police got on the PA system and said, "Please do not get on the ancient ruins, anywhere but there please." They really love their soccer here.
Interesting website with a lot of resources and detailed explanations.
