500 Happening


Two days ago: 800 Fiat 500 (the old one) were in Piazza Vittorio Veneto and with them thousands of tourists ready to say "Hello" to the new bambina.

Due giorni fa: 800 Fiat 500 in Piazza Vittorio e con esse migliaia di turisti pronti a dire "Ciao" alla nuova "bambina".

The nuova bambina is very cute, but not as cute as the beloved old 500. Well, maybe in another 40 years she'll look just as cute.

I don't know if I've ever seen a Fiat 500 before. Surely, someone must have one here in San Diego. Reminds me of the new and old VW beetle which we see a lot of here.

I like this photograph and your story behind it.

My daughter, Melinda, has a picture she took on my blog. It is a stunning macro.

Now I know more about the Fiat 500, both old and new. I, too, don't know if I've ever seen one here in the US; doubt it since we have such a love affair with big cars. Bah!!
