Despite having access to the world’s most advanced technology, I sometimes envy the old world’s history and entrenched culture.
Constant dripping hollows out a stone.

The Roman Colosseum is a testament to a once great empire.
Yesterday, I was looking up various destinations for a potential holiday. While on Contiki’s website, I stumbled upon Europe and was reminded of a photo I wanted to enlarge for my wall.
I quickly sifted through my archives and found a sunset in Rome, Italy. I was walking along a bridge when this scenic view melted my heart. It was too bad that the couple I was photographing was not there. Otherwise, I would have loved to take advantage of the golden rays.

One of my friends just photographed a wedding in Rome, Italy – with the colosseum, ruins, etc. I won’t deny it…I was a bit jealous. Anyway, until next time…
Ciao Bella,

P.S. I’m considering the Outback territory of Australia or an African safari…too bad I can’t just do both!
