June 2nd...

June 2nd is the national holiday in Italy~ Basically like the 4th of July in America.
I was trying to walk to The Colosseum that day but could not get through, it was all closed off for the first half of the day for the celebration~

I was walking back to another area to spend a few hours until I could get through and I heard a crazy loud noise~ Luckily I had my camera ready and snapped this shot!
