What a horrible thing to happen on a fun family vacation .
Heartbreaking!
When I studied in Florence in the early 2000’s, the only non-natives I saw were the Africans selling fake purses on the street. When I was on a company trip to London, we were surrounded by Africans who attempted to pickpocket my pocketbook. I looked down and saw his arm snaking from around me and even though I had my pocketbook clasped close to my abdomen, he was unable to unzip it without me even knowing. Fortunately, I was able to stop anything from happening.
That being said, I believe most of Europe is lost with the influx of those savages/animals.
