Early Sunday morning at St Peters, Vatican City, before the crowds arrive!

Had a fabulous time in Italy catching up with Ro and John (my aunt and uncle). Met them for the last few nights of the walking tour they were guiding. After my experience of school trips it was interesting to observe how a group of adults behave on a trip. Funny, not much changes as people age! There are always people who don't listen, ask too many questions, tell inappropriate jokes, get lost or stuck in the toilet.

Four nights meant barely a taste, more like a lick, of Italy. I did have time to sample authentic Italian pasta, pizza and red wine. Will have to plan another trip to see more of the country and sample more of the food. Don't think it will be too hard to persuade a friend or two to accompany me!
