Imagining that from Athens to Rome, symbolically speaking, is an important journey. Rome is welcoming it with the utmost splendour, with sunshine and blue skies, and we hope that this is a good omen in these times, as it was in the past, so that hostilities may cease. That is what we hope for." 9. (SOUNDBITE) (English) BRITISH BYSTANDER FROM NORTH WALES, LARA JONES, SAYING:     "It seems a lot of people have come out for it and things, yeah, amazing for the world.
