Vatican

Day 7 saw us walking to the Vatican. Talk about crowded! It was fascinating, of course we only saw a small part but all very interesting. St Peter's Basilica is beautiful. We called in on the Trevi Fountain as well as Castel Sant' Angelo.

Rome

Day 6 we headed to Roma. We stayed in a very old area where everything was old, most buildings were covered in Graffiti. The streets were narrow with a surprise around every corner. We were quite close to the Tiber River and only a short walk from great shopping.

Day 5

Europe

There are so many photos to share from our trip that I will need to do it in small slide shows.
In the first four days we went to Pompeii, the Herculeum, Naples, Sorrento, Positano, the Amalfi Coast and the Sulphur Craters to mention just a few.

Europe 2010

Well, my husband & I have just arrived back from a fantastic 23 days in Italy, Belgium & France. It was suppose to be 17 days but volcanic ash got into the mix and so added to our adventure.

We went with the girls from the college we work at here in Sydney. So it was an educational trip looking at history of both WW1 & WW2 as well as ancient history ie, Pompeii, the Colosseum, the Forum etc.

I will add a few photos for now but hope to write more details later.

The next time I blog, which probably won't be for a few weeks.....so what else is new.....I hope to have an incredible experience to share with you. See you then.
