I must be the luckiest girl alive.
We are going to leave our beautiful lake...
To go here!
Beautiful Italy!
Sister Lynn and husband Steve wanted to bring Dad to Italy
this autumn where Steve has business meetings.
Dad has never had the opportunity to visit Europe.
Guess who was asked to tag along?
Yes, Mr. Flea and me!
I will not be bringing my laptop...
...nor will I be toting my big girl camera.
Just my little point and shoot this time.
No worries...
these photos were all taken with my little pocket Canon
back in 2009 when we were last in Italy.
I am in love with my Canon Rebel T1...truly I am...
but my trusty itty bitty Canon SD600
can't be beat for convenience!

We are traveling lightly and plan to appreciate each moment that we have together enjoying this beautiful country.
Therefore, I will be absent from bloglandia for a while.
Hoping you all stay well while I am gone.
Be back soon with tales of our adventures!
Ciao Bella!

Enjoy La Dolce Vita Laura & and see you then!!W. the Antiques Lovers
Dear Laura,
Wishing you the most wonderful trip to my favourite country....Italy. I can't wait to see which part you are going to.
Even though I have a posh camera with all of the whistles and bells, I always take my point and shoot camera out with me, especially on holiday, and we can never believe the wonderful photographs that we get from it. Half of the time, I don't even look to see what setting it's on and it still takes great photos. When I am on holiday, the last thing I want to do is drag a massive camera around with me, especially in the hot weather !!
Have a wonderful time, all of you and I look forward to photos and stories of your trip.
Safe journey. XXXX
How fantastic! Travel safely please and enjoy this very special trip with your Dad. I am so excited for all of you!
And don't forget to eat some gelato for all of us! :)
What a wonderful blessing, Laura!
That is my dream trip, I hope you have a fabulous time.
Love,
Anne
