I can't make this up...

My "pick up details"

In two weeks I fly from London to Rome, where I begin a calm, thoughtful immersion into 2,000 years of living Latin language. Or where I begin my new life as Amelia, amateur photographer/secret agent! I got a room through a woman named Amy, who also arranges pick up from the airport when you arrive. Here are my instructions:


Dear Amelia ,

here below the pick up details:

A man , about 50 years old , slim with brown hair , named Goffredo ,
with a blue cap with white number 831 , named Goffredo ,

driving a green STATION VAGON MERCEDES

will pick you on wednesday JUNE 1st at 10,30 am at
Ciampino airport at the DEPARTURE !!!!! gate on the left of the arrival gate
where it is easier to pick you up.

No-one is allowed to park there for more than the baggage- transfer , so , to
avoid the policemen fine us , and to recognize you easier and faster , I
would like to ask you to have a
NEWSPAPER in your hand .

It will be helpful to have a description of yourself.

If there will be any changes please let me know soon and be sure I reply to you .

Cheers

Amy

Time Traveler Conference

I guess I'm flattering myself to think that *my* blog will be read into the far future, but what a great idea! I suppose I can go slip a printout into the rare book library...

MIT Time Traveler Conference

The great thing is, you only need one!
