Italia

We’ve been in Rome the last couple of days, this city defines history! We got on the train at Okehampton station last Thursday, by the evening we were In Cologne. A stop over before Foggia, a stop over before Milan then a stop over before Torre Del Greco for 3 nights.

The latter the centre for coral jewellery. (All ethical these days). This wasn’t something we knew before, but it’s applicable as its our 35th anniversary (coral!)

We visited Pompeii and Capri. Leaving Rome tomorrow to head to Empoli for Florence again 3 nights. Then a stop over in Nice before 4 nights in Carcassonne. Then a stop over in Paris before home.

Trains have been great so far as has the accommodation. Got to love an Interrail ticket!

Several bucket list things being ticked off. We were going to do it when we retire, but a mate of mine who retired just over a year ago, died recently and we thought stuff it - let’s do it while we can.

Anyway for some reason there’s not much news of the takeover here, so staying up to speed reading SHA!
