VENICE AND BEYOND.......
It's A Favorite Thing Saturday again so I'm
linking this post to Claudia at Mockingbird Hill Cottage.
You all know how traveling to new places is a favorite thing
I love to do........and I'm doing a lot of it lately.......
........we're leaving for Europe today!
Thankfully I feel a whole lot better because my treatment
seems to be working well. With my wonderful Bob to help
carry the bags, stop me from tripping on the escalators,
shove the carry ons up into those tight squeeze
overheads, and give me moral support, I'm ready to
see several European jewels...
Venice, Dubrovnik, the Greek Islands,
Athens and Istanbul. These places have been
high on my wish list for a long time.
We'll be on the Crystal Serenity sailing the seas.
If I have Internet I'll post now and then, if not,
I've pre-posted a few more fun Australian stories
from the amazing recent Kimberley Region trip,
which should pop up whilst I'm gone. Know I'll be
missing you, taking photos, and taking notes on all
the beauty of these old cities so I can share more
travels with you when I get home.

Bon Voyage, Mary! In my last comment did I tell you to have fun in England? I meant Europe! I can't wait to hear all about it and see some pictures. Have wonderful time!
ReplyDeleteXO,
Jane
Bon voyage, you'll have a great time. Look forward to some gorgeous pictures of exotic spice markets, whitwashed mountainside villages and serenading gondoliers.
ReplyDeleteI'm glad you are feeling better Mary. I visited Dubrovnik in 1965 when it was still Yugoslavia so it will be interesting to see your photos. The Old Town was really beautiful so I hope it wasn't damaged too much during the fighting. Have a wonderful time!
ReplyDeleteBon Voyage to you both – this sounds like a perfect trip to end the year!
ReplyDeleteVenice is the only one on your list I’ve been to – it’s still my favourite
place on earth and you’re going at the right time. Have you been before?
It’s so romantic – I’m glad you’ll be sharing it with Bob, oh the memories!
I wish I could meet up with you both at Florian for a coffee – another time maybe!
Wonderful news that you are responding so well to the medication Mary.
Have fun and take care
Shane ♥
Happy travel, dear friend!
ReplyDeleteLook forward to more travel sharing from you.
Mary, I didn't realize this was another cruise. Wow, what wonderful ports of call. These are on my wish list. I've been to Istanbul. It is a wonderful city full of exotic sights. Bon voyage ~ enjoy, my friend.........Sarah
ReplyDeleteHappy travelling Mary and Bob!!! You will see such a wonderful countries. It will be lovely to see all your photos and stories from the travels in Europe.
ReplyDeleteI've been to the Greek Islands and Dubrovnik. You are going to just love it there. The food is wonderful and earthy. The people so friendly. I'll have to stop back and read your posts when you return. Have a wonderful trip.

Have a wonderful time dear!!! This will always be my favorite place in the whole world! Think of me as you walk around town, savor delicious food, and enjoy the beautiful scenery... Thinking of you too dear. Love, Vanessa
ReplyDeleteI love Venice and Istanbul. Dubrovnik is very interesting too but heavily restored. But the Croatian coastline is stunning and I know you will love it.
ReplyDeleteLooking forward to hearing what you will make of these places.
OH AND I AM DELIGHTED THAT YOU ARE FEELING BETTER MARY!
