Back from vacation

We are back from our wonderful vacation in Italy. We stayed there for two weeks, in San Lorenzo al Mare. It is a small town in the near of Imperia or San Remo, close to the French border. We had wonderful weather and much fun. We visited Monaco, Ezé, a zoo in the near of Nice and some other nice places. And we stayed many times at the sea. Here are some pictures from our trip.





When I came home, I found a envie from my Secret Pal. In them was a wonderful little bag, a alpaca yarn, some needles and a beautiful pattern. I will make a picture tomorrow and show it. It was a wonderful package. Thank you much. The pattern looks very nice and the yarn is so soft.

Secret Pal 12 ~ Question of the Week #2

As a kid, what did you look forward to most about summer vacation/break/holiday?

As we always went to a campingplace in Italy, I looked forward to met my friends there. We stayed
there every year for six weeks and so I had some close friends there. They are from all nations.
Sure, they changed also from summer to summer, but some of them also came every year, like me.
For me the six weeks in Italy had been always great. This is also the reason why I love to Italy
also today.

Secret Pal 12 ~ Question of the week

I found the idea very good to have a question of the week, so you must post in your blog. Here is the first question:

Whats your favorite summer time drink? Or winter drink? ( for those of you in he southern hemisphere)

I must say, I mostly drink water. Sometimes Ice-tea, or cola/lime with beer. So my answer isn't the longest one.

Here are the photos of our concert visiting and the zoo. We have a new camera now, hope that this one will be fit for the next years :-)
This the ones from the concert.
