In Rome, things move a bit more slowly in August. It’s hot; almost everyone is out of town; stores and restaurants are closed; only a fraction of the usual buses and taxis are on the street. In short, there’s just no reason to hurry.
The lazy slowness of August is exactly and precisely the reason that we’re a bit late with our Photo Friday post this week–though our tardiness makes Susan Sanders’ shot no less humorous. She snapped this photo of a Bernabei van in Piazza del Popolo. Bernabei is one of Rome’s major distributors of alcohol, so we’re betting that the van’s exterior embellishment is meant to encourage those who imbibe to consider their actions carefully while under the influence.
The icons on the van suggest that such activities as littering, painting on walls, sleeping in piazzas, and talking loudly should be avoided. We agree. We’d also go so far as to suggest that one’s spelling should always be checked–even in cases of extreme inebriation.
