They were like in any other group bustling around the tourist haven. But they had an unusual request, Boniello, 23, wrote on Twitter. They said they didn't have their own smartphones or cameras, so they asked her to use hers."We'll find it someday," one of them said.When I was in the city last week, these three Irishmen asked me to take a photo of them, but none of them had phones.so if by some strange turn of events anyone knows these guys, here's their photo pic.twitter.

Power of social media
