$18 Gelato at the Gay Pride parade
Rome

I guess we were somewhat distracted by the techno
music blaring from the floats in the Gay Pride parade
rolling past the Vittorio Emmanuel Monument, and weren't
paying attention as the fellow behind the gelato upsold
Ellie, one item at a time, until she held the finest
Gelato cone available in Europe. Would she like the
chocolate-covered cone? Of course. How about candy
coated straws? Whipped cream? And a sparkler on top?
Em registered our shock and showed restraint on her
order -- which only came to 8 euros.
Two ice cream cones, $30.
