.......THIS FIAT 500 CAR WAS PARKED AT PORTOFINO TO SHOW A COMMON ITALIAN CAR. IT WAS NOSTALGIC FOR SETTIMIO TO SEE THIS, BECAUSE THAT WAS *HIS* CAR IN ROME, THE ONE THAT HE DROVE ME AROUND IN ALL OVER ITALY, WHEN I LIVED THERE FOR 3 YEARS IN THE EARLY 1970'S. NOW LOOKING INSIDE THIS ONE, I CAN'T BELIEVE HOW SMALL IT IS INSIDE!!! A NORMAL PERSON'S HEAD WOULD TOUCH THE ROOF AND HIS/HER KNEES WOULD BE RIGHT UP AGAINST THE DASHBOARD. IN FACT, I REMEMBER MINE WERE!! IT'S LIKE BEING IN A SARDINE CAN, AND NOT AT ALL SAFE IN AN ACCIDENT! (AND THERE WERE SOME CLOSE CALLS IN THOSE 3 YEARS TOO!!) BUT IT'S A CUTE LITTLE "BUG" CAR, ISN'T IT??


OK, THESE ARE GETTING REPETITIOUS I KNOW, BUT WHILE I'M HERE I MIGHT AS WELL UPLOAD AS MANY AS POSSIBLE, SO I WON'T HAVE TO PUT THEM IN ANOTHER ALBUM!
