Ice Cream Expensive

“Welcome to the historic centre of Rome, in the year 2013. It was here at the top of Via della Vite, just off Piazza di Spagna, that four holidaymakers from Birmingham nearing the end of their six-day trip to Rome bought the ice creams with the nasty after-taste. Four ‘wrap-around’ cones ‘with two wafers and three flavours’ cost €16 each for a total of €64.”
 — I dunno, I might pay $20 for an ice cream if it meant I was eating it in Rome. I mean, probably not, that’s just crazy, but in the scheme of things there are a lot of less palatable options.
