Subject: Rome Antics: Finn Lloyd

So this post is dedicated to Finn Lloyd ( pictured below) for his hilarity throughout the trip.

Finn's antics so far:

Athens
- purchased this charming t shirt  in the flea market
- developed a rather acquired taste for cake bars ( not what you'd call a Greek specialty )
- made a name for himself in finding the most disgusting foods in the supermarket and using them as his lunch ( questionable oranges and ham spring to mind)

Travelling from Athens to Greece:

- Finn entertained us immensely by breaking out loudly into song during a relatively quiet bus ride on the way to Patras
- Best of all, Finn successfully downed 23 mini milk cartons on the ferry before the bar staff decided to cut him off

In Rome, the swarms of Moroccan junk hustlers ( which seemed to have followed us from Greece ) were at the mercy of Finn's haggling skills - the purchase of a sticky green pig for 2 cents today was perhaps his best buy...

However, this pig predictably got stuck on the hostel roof as soon as we got back -

Our attempts to get it down left not just the pig stuck up there...

Finn is the kind of guy you need on a trip like this - he always lightens the mood on a long bus ride or at some ruins that require just a little too much imagination to appreciate.

I'll sign off with a video of Finn on the train from Ancona to Rome - hopefully others will post up their best Finn moments and other funny stuff.

Lol
