Roaming in Rome?

“The shops will be closed!” A sentence greeted differently by Nazy and Dan.

“It’s Easter , my dear,” I explained. “A once in a life-time chance: we can visit the Vatican.”

“The Catholic Church is not very popular these days,” Nazy replied

.
“The procession only happens once a year,” I continued. “We’d be fools to miss it.”

“It will be crowded. We won’t be able to get reservations at any good restaurant.”

“So? We’ll just eat at McDonald’s,” I replied – hopefully. “And I found a really grand hotel. It’s right in the shopping district.”

“Dan! We should go to Rome some other time.”

“No Roaming?”

“None at all.”

“So, where would you like to spend your birthday?”

“At the Pucci Emporium,” Nazy thought. “What do you suggest, Dan?” Nazy said.

We decided that Italy is too Catholic, Greece is too far, Germany too rainy, Austria too German, Switzerland too close to home…

“What about Krakow?” I suggested.

“Isn’t the Pope from Krakow?” Nazy was still thinking about Easter in Rome.

“Old Pope, not the new one.” I replied.

We’ve decided to go to Krakow via Prague for Nazy’s birthday.
