Christmas Delivery

Christmas in Verona

Verona looks really beautiful this year, no expense spared on the decorations, although I have a feeling that we may be seeing them for the next 5 years.
The shooting Star has arrived in Piazza Bra, Bauli is sponsoring the trees and it's raining stars in Piazza Erbe.
Outside my bedroom window is a street filled with blankets of fairy lights...will try for a photo this week.
Xmas is coming early for us this year as I'll be in New Zealand for Christmas, so Mum & Dad are coming for a festive spread in Verona, my tree is up, Turkey is in the fridge and Christmas pud is on it's way (thanks Mum)

Indulgence in the mountains.

Another year on and Karuna and I decide to make the trip back to Bormio for some much needed pampering and relaxing. This year we actually managed to spend our first night of the weekend in the hotel rather than stranded in Switzerland. Find time to squeeze in a massage, spot of lunch, mud bath, sauna, turkish bath...and cups of tea...natural steam cave sauna...endless pampering. A perfect birthday weekend.

a long weekend

Paignton Beach and Pier, nothing quite like a walk along a British Beach in November to make Autumn your favorite season to enjoy the seaside. It has to be one of the things I miss most about living in the UK, there is nothing quite like it.
