Long, long ago…
Okay; actually not that long. 😃
Just a few days back; 😊 friends, you and I were astonished in the unbelievable
Austria.
I hope that you enjoyed the experience!
Taking the euphoric celebrations through Europe another country
further…
To see if our knowledge can cross the pizza/pasta boundary…
Yes friends. You’ve joined me in Italy!
Just like the well-known bliss
of the Swiss,
So a Shakespeare
play made this place famous?
You guessed it right! Our first stop happened to be Venice.
Freshening us up was the wet, cool evening breeze… like it
was there just to tease.
I thought, the weather’s just perfect!
To go to the island, we boarded a boat.
As drops of water began dancing here and there…
For the first time in the entire trip, everyone made use of a raincoat.
The sea has always fascinated me… Can’t say why, but it attracts
me like the glue…
The waves are ever so calm… The surroundings so charmingly
blue....
All this was so nice… We were in the Gondola ride…
Everyone was reminded of and my Indian readers also might remember
this song…
कुछ याद आया?
After the gondola ride, we visited a glass factory.
There, we saw a glass horse being made within a minute!
The Venice attractions, such as the Doge's Palace, Bridge of
Sighs and others
Welcomed us onward to take a stroll through the city.
The next day excited us as we travelled to Florence…
We took a photo-stop at Piazzale Michelangelo, a hilltop
square having a great view of the city.
And now… It was time…
That we see our most awaited Italian world-wonder…
The Leaning tower of Pisa!
Cameras/smartphones were clicking… collecting lifetime
moments one by one we were picking.
What wonderful memories
were we making!
Have you ever eaten a grilled sandwich or a bread roll? I
tasted the Italian version… And the surprising fact? There the locals call it
Panini/Panini…
Panini also happens to be the name of an Indian grammarian
who is also considered the father of linguistics… Info source.
We entered the smallest country in the world, the Vatican City…
there we were
In the Vatican Museum and Sistine Chapel.
The cleanliness, discipline and the artwork of the great Michelangelo
impressed us all…
The Roman Forum, the political and commercial center of
The historical Roman Empire attracted our attention…
With a visit to the Trevi fountain, we saw the Circus
Maximus, the entertainment square
And a chariot racing stadium the of ancient Rome.
Cherishing lifetime moments we said goodbye to Rome…
And were off to our home
sweet home.
Congrats bhava.Great.....
