Catacombs

Last night I dreamt that I was a either 1) a modern-day Jew or 2) somehow connected to modern-day Jews, and I was hiding in the city of Rome. People kept hunting for me, but there was a whole network of people who spirited me away into the catacombs of Rome - now refurbished into a bunch of space-age underground hubs connected by the original dirt catacombs which we had to run through on our way back from raiding the farmer's market in disguise.

The most memorable part of my dream - well, there were two. The first one was before I found the catacombs and I was put into safekeeping in this really huge house with a field across the road. The front of the house was all window-doors that had locks. I was frantically trying to lock all of the complicated locks while a mob of about 20 guys gathered outside. One of them found a door I hadn't locked, and they all trooped in. I dont' remember how I escaped that scene. The second memorable thing was when I was in the catacombs and I got into a utility elevator. There was a hidden door along the bottom of the elevator, which led into another (also descending) elevator. I squeezed through that one and ended up in a different elevator on a different floor than I had punched into the original elevator. I thought that might throw off the pursuers... and I was right!
