Hello friends.

  We are continuing our trip to Rome and London.  In case you missed the first, second, and third blog posts about our trip, you can click the links at the bottom of this post.

I'm wrapping up our last days in Rome.  

Hello friends, I hope you are enjoying this new month of September.  I'm loving the cooler weather we're having here. During this time of year I love making soups and using my crockpot.🍁 

I have some recipes that I've shared before on the blog and I'd love to share them with you again.

Happy September friends. 🍁

 

Hello friends.

  We are continuing our trip to Rome and London.  In case you missed my first and second blog posts about our trip, you can click the links at the bottom of this post.

Our meeting spot for City Wonders.

Our first stop was to see Pompeii.

Walking around Pompeii with a different tour guide who explained everything about Pompeii to us.

You can see in the distance Mt. Vesuvius.

After the tour of Pompeii, we were given a small pizza and lemon soda to eat on the bus. 

We were then brought to a Limoncello Factory to see a tour and taste different samples of Limoncello.  It was nice to see the gift shop and everything to do with lemons.  

The gorgeous view of Sorrento.

We were given about two hours to walk around the area.  I would have liked more time to explore the area.  There are such nice stores for tourist shopping and restaurants.  

This is a view looking down at the beach clubs.  You can walk down the cliff or take an elevator down to the water.

Basilica di Sant' Antonio.  I loved the inside of this beautiful church.

After a long day, we got on our bus and headed back to the drop off area in Rome.

My husband and I wanted a quick meal after a long day.  We spotted a McDonald's in the area and had burgers for a late dinner.  After our meal, we had a small cup of espresso that was so good. 

Instead of a long walk back, we decided to take an Uber back to our apartment.

Hello friends, and happy August.  I'm a week late with this post, but I'd love to share with you what is going on lately.

I'm joining Jenn for her Currently link-up.  It's held on the first Wednesday of each month and lasts about two weeks. This month, we are sharing what we are loving, looking forward to, scheduling, buying, and gearing up for.

LOVING:  I'm loving the cooler weather we've been having since we recently had a heat wave.  I'm loving eating all of the summer fruits such as cherries, watermelon, and peaches. 

LOOKING FORWARD TO:  I'm looking forward to fall weather in a few weeks.  I'm looking forward to fall decorating inside and outside the house.  Making soup and fall baking.

SCHEDULING:  I am scheduling doctors' appointments.

BUYING:  I've been buying some items that we needed from Amazon.  You can read my latest post here.

GEARING UP FOR:  I'm gearing up for more hot weather this month.  I'm hoping we don't have any more heatwaves.  The weather has cooled down a lot and I hope it stays that way.  I've also noticed that it gets darker earlier at night and I'm gearing up for that and fall.

What have you been up to, and is currently new with you?
