Memories in a picturesque way

For the 18th birthday of a friend I a made a calender.
Filled with memories from the about sixteen years I've known her.
I took my bike and camera and started taking pictures,
and looked through my photo archives.
I'm not going to show you all of them, but here you've got a few..

You might recognise London, Sienna and Rotterdam :)
And by the way, none of them are made with a reflex camera!

Italia Roma

Our day in Rome was quit heavy, we saw many many things and I'm just gonna show you some.
Let's start our tour!

Walking to Villa Borghese.

Famous for the sculpture of Paolina Borghese, sister of Napoleon.
Yet taking pictures inside wasn't allowed so I got these ones from the official site of Villa Borghese.

Moving on with our tour through Rome

The shopping street with great shops as Chanel,, Jimmy Choo, Bulgari, ...

I forgot the name and all the tralala of this building but if you throw a coin with your left hand over your right shoulder in the fountain you will go back to Rome one day (says the legend). So off course we threw a cent. ;)

Impressing ceilings with brilliant trompe l'oeil's.

The famous Forum Romanum. We hadn't got the time to visit it but we looked over it.

And we couldn't miss the Colosseum off course ...

Amaaazing boots !

See you again with the pope ;)

Italia Siena

You make me realise again how wonderful it is to have a blog, reading al your sweet comments
oh I just can't stop smiling!

Now welcome in Siena !

See you again in Rome !

Italia Venezia e Ravenna

And we're back from Italy!

All ready a few days shame on me, but I've been busy.
And here are the pictures of our first days. I decided to show them in a few posts (one or a few days per post)

Beginning on a parking on the go

Ruby's cute River Island sweater
(Sorry Ru, for stealing these three pictures! )

The next morning a quick pic in our hotel room before we left to Venice. And yes I'm eating a carrot ;)

 

And then we are in Venice, unfortunately with kinda bad weather

You can see our big group of people.
Although it looks little here, it are 103 students.

The stand of the water was really high!

The next day we went to Ravenna to see for instance San Vitale

Many beautiful trompe l'oeil's, mosaics and wall-paintings.

And then on the go to our next hotel.

We'll see you again in Siena !

Ciao ciao !

Last night at 5 o clock in the morning (our time), we left to Italy! It's a school trip :) We're going to see the big and famous places like Rome, Venice, Firenze, Pompeii, Siena, ...
I've been already to most of them a few years ago but I don't mind! And it's Ruby's first time, how cute ^^.
We're going to see a lot museums and things like that because of our study (art remember!).

Like you see, it's a while ago ;) I'm like 13? 14?

So, we'll see you again within 12 days!

And for the ones who have autumn vacation like us next week, have fun!
