Getting dressed

Not for a weeding, not for a baptism, not even for a birthday, only for a swim. But going for a swim under the surface requires some equipment, and since I am (hopefully) going to finish the theoretical part of my diving course next week I have to get the equipment.

Sara came and picked me up, on the way I played the American tourist and took some photos of things we passed in Rome.

Well actually I took out my camera mainly to put this poster on the blog:



This poster got my vote for being the most interesting poster so far, in the election campaign for major of Rome. The poster says "Rome is a jungle. - vote for Tarzan". I wonder what Disney says about it. I have no idea if Tarzan is in fact one to vote for, but the poster is cool.

Driving on we saw this house, with lots of flowers illustrating the level of spring here:



Then I was warm so this is mainly a picture of the pedestrian who got the auto focus of my camera, instead of the entrance to the biggest cemetery in Rome.



Or maybe this was actually the entrance... and the other one, something else (?!?)



here are some more balconies with flowers, it was very pretty, but I was slow, so you can't see much from this angle.



And finally whats a shopping trip without showing the catch.



All of my new equipment home in the sofa, trying to figure out what to do with itself.

It is a bit strange to buy this kind of things, because honestly its not that comfortable to wear the suit, or the flippers for that sake. but if you can get in it you just have to trust that it will adjust when it gets into the water. As the saying goes "just add water".
