Can You Juggle?
The other morning something strange happened! I had just arrived at work and was turning on my computer, when I hear some commotion in the hallway, and 5-10 colleagues march into my office. The front one with tree balls, the ones for juggling.
Some weeks ago I had been asked to write a CV for an offer we were making for a tender my company was trying to win, so I just sent her the one I had lying around on my home computer (you should always have an updated CV- right!?!). One of the things I had written on it, was that I juggle.
So since I had written it on the CV, I had to show my colleagues that I could do it. Won't say that I did it with style, but I did it... ;-)
Later, after work I had a date with my girlfriend to go and rent bicycles in the centre and go for a bike ride around the historical centre. To look at the spots I was reading about in the "Turen går til Rom" ("The trip is to Rome" Danish guide book), which I had borrowed from a friend. Not that I havent seen the places before, but Rome is beautiful also after 3 years.

Going around on bike in the centre of Rome is pretty cool, because you are pretty fast, and its pretty easy to salmon between the hords of german turists which roam in the streets these days. First stop via Piazza del Popolo (and a shoe shop Sara likes), a place where they make fruit shakse and ice cream just behind Piazza Navona (also had a trip on piazza Navona).
Had a frappe with mango icecream (Frappe is basically a milk shake), which was fantastic, but almost a litre :).
Then on to piazza Pasquino (link) to see one of the talking statues,

via dei Coronari with all its antic shops and a quick wave to Castel Sant'Angelo. Campo de' Fiori, which is now a nice square with small bars and resturant, but only 200 years ago the public execution place, where among many others Giordano Bruno was executed for believing the planet was round, in February, 1600. Giordano is the guy standing in the middle of the piazza.
It requires quite a bit of work to be allowed to take part of the bike sharing program is complicated, as in "please sign these 9 places"- and "write you CPR here"- complicated, but its nice to have the possibility to grab a bike when going around in the centre.
