Roma!
My trip to Rome has been amazing! Anna and her Italian partner, Antonio, have been wonderful hosts and COOKS! Weve wandered the small roads, climbed the hills to the Villas, and meandered the Roman ruins. Then, weve sipped our wine and enjoyed homemade Italian cuisine!
Brussels
My three days in Brussels were filled with bits of sunshine and lots of music.
Laura, my friend who married a Belgian and now lives in this classic home along with her two small children, is a musician.
And, Brussels held many free concerts in their plazas.
Laura also recommended this Music Museum that displayed musical intstruments throughout the ages and from different cultures. They gave us headphones that played music from the instruments. It was lovely, and the musuem itself was done in Art Nouveau--the style of the city.
Oh, and we tried lots of beer.

Lucerne, Matterhorn, and Ascona
The last few days in Switzerland
We traveled South and further South...into Italian country!
Lucerne/Luzern's main landmarks are the covered bridges. We sat by the river and sipped our coffee after wandering the small winding streets.
The Matterhorn/Zermatt was stunning, and we climbed through the wildflowers to get a good view!
Lastly, Ascona and Locarno were fresh and sunny. We ate at this amazing Italian eatery; they just began serving us delicious food, and it ended up being a good deal...and VERY GOOD!

Red Tent Camping
Went camping in Ventura and decided I need to make my own tent...my "box," my nook, my space. With asian silk and detailed fabrics.
