    Giochi di Strada - Street Games!

    Published: Oct 28, 2011 · Modified: Oct 27, 2014 by Marissa Stevens · 3 Comments

    Ropes and cones block all 6-lanes of the Via dei Fori Imperiali from the Colosseum to Il Vittoriano. Instead of cars, buses, and Vespas - bubble blowers, tug-of-war teams, stilt walking students, and block builders fill traffic lanes. Giochi di Strada, Street Games!

    The fellow making the giant bubbles entertained kids - of all ages (ahem).
