  1. Let us hope the weather warms up a little for Carnevale, we have more snow forecast here in Lazio!

  2. Ok.. it might just be the mood I am in… but it looks like the king is humping that clown and the clown is enjoying it!!!

    Perhaps it is a good thing nothing is scheduled for the morning!!!!
