Day Seventeen - Photo a Day

Hello there!

This photo is from the little island of Burano. That's right, not Murano where the glass is made, but Burano where the lace is made. Lace in itself isn't that thrilling but Burano itself was beautiful. It was described to us as 'the island where the rainbow breaks' on the boat over from Venice.

When you arrive it is easy to see why it is described in that way, the houses are all painted different bright colours and no two together are the same. It is like a Disney film in there, especially with random old women making lace on the street.

They have a leaning tower too...but it isn't on this photo...sorry.

Day Sixteen - Photo a Day

This photo is from a boat trip on Lake Garda and shows the ruins of a Roman villa. It was massive and half the bricks had been stolen to build the castle on the island. And that castle is a proper sized castle, no messing about there.

Obviously this picture doesn't do it justice but then it is something you will just have to go and see for yourself. And you should if you get the chance it is beautiful there.

Day Fifteen - Photo a Day

If you know me then you will know of my love for nutella. It is a joyous product which never fails to give me joy.

My love reached new heights when I saw this on a stand outside my hotel...

Oh yes, that dear readers is four absolutely MASSIVE tubs of nutella. Now I'm going to let that sink in a little bit.......

Love a bit of catering sized food.

I tried to get a sense of scale for this wonder, but I don't think it truly does it justice as my hand is close to the camera. The guy running the stall got a bit annoyed with my awe.

Oh, and I do have a thumb, but I'm using it to hold my phone case (the black thing).

Still, pretty big though!

Day Fourteen - Photo a Day

I love this photo so much, It is of the lovely gondolier we had in Venice. And yes, I was about to call him a gondola man, but then remembered the helping hand that is google.

He was extremely proud of his city and pointed out the important sights on the little tour. We went around one of the islands which had the opera house and a beautiful church  close by. The onto the grand canal to 'park up' which was so busy!

Mr Gondolier told us it wasn't usually this busy but a building had collapsed on the normal gondola routes and so that canal was closed and everyone was having to go on the grand canal. Good news though as we were close to 3 gondolas with singers in them and they synchronised which was lovely...it also lengthened the trip to an hour instead of thirty mins :)

Day Thirteen - Photo a Day

This little note was in the hotel toilets and I enjoyed it. So it found itself on my blog, lucky thing!

Oh and I wasn't in Westminster, I was in Italy. Another reason to enjoy.

Day Twelve- Photo a Day

Hello there. This little piccy is an indoor sparkler I had for my birthday cake, well my home birthday cake. I had my birthday on holiday and so no cake but ice cream...yum. This was going to be a sparkler laden cake picture, but it wasn't very good. This is slightly better..and sparkly.

I am a terrible person...Day Eleven

After a terrible and pointless break in this blog I will be resuming and WILL be posting daily. Or I will at least have a decent excuse as to why I haven't been posting.

I'm going to finish this little 30 day challenge today with little notes above the pictures instead of paragraphs.

I will try to be less terrible and neglectful from now on :)

This my dears is the amazing frozen yogurt me and a friend had at nando's. Oh the joy of a shared bottomless fro yo machine...yum! We went back a few times and got some looks from the staff as we shouted 'make it bigger' across the place, but it was all worth it for the frozen delights. And it was strawberry flavour in case you were wondering (I know you are)

OK...lets crack on with day 12!
