Roman Holiday

And there's no way that I would have made it around Rome so effortlessly, especially with a bad back, without the assistance of Miss Laura (as Linda, the wonderful Core Division office manager, refers to her).  Laura had been to Rome a couple times, as well as spending a year teaching in Italy, so she both knows the area and speaks the language (although I suspect that she was mainly saying "just keep bringing food, you can't fill him up.").  Mainly she spent the time patiently waiting for me to work my way through museums and historical landmarks.

And here she is displaying her brilliant map-reading skills, which mainly consist of folding the map repeatedly until it somehow makes sense.
