The Marriage Proposal and the Mobal World Phone


In September I took my long-time girlfriend, Lillian, on a secret trip to Europe. First to London and then to Rome.

I had my Mobal World Phone throughout my duration in London but kept it hidden and out of sight. We did the typical touristy things that one does in London. Go on the tube, visit the west-end, have pint, walk tower bridge, walk down the Thames.

But it wasn’t until Rome when I needed my Mobal World Phone.

On our third evening in Rome, I took Lillian to the Trevi Fountain and began to explain the throwing the coin into the fountain tradition. I handed her one coin and said to throw it in the fountain so that some day you will return to Rome. She did so, posed for a picture and returned. I then handed her a second coin saying that this coin was to find your true love. Her response was that she didn’t need the second coin and refused to throw it. After a few moments of encouragement she finally threw in the second coin and posed for yet another picture. When it came to the third coin (which is to find your true love in Rome) instead of a coin was a ring.

Of course she said Yes!

After hugging, crying, kissing, and the crowd around us clapping, we returned to our hotel. On the journey I surprised her with my Mobal World Phone so that she could call everyone in her family to tell them the good news.

Thank you for providing a great product!
