Thanks for the lovely photos, Maggie. I enjoyed the tour! The gardens are spectacular.
ReplyDeleteWhat a wonderful world ... around every corner another postcard view! I didn't realise Maggie that there were beautiful gardens at Pompeii... I guess it helps to soften the effect of the devastating volcano eruption.
ReplyDeleteMaggie, I've loved going along with you on this Amalfi Coast trip and don't want the photos to end. These are gorgeous mosaics. Thanks for taking the time to pull all this together to share with us.

What a beautiful trip that must have been Maggie. Such beautiful treasures and photo's I love them all. Have a good weekend
ReplyDeleteLove the verse and your photos are beautiful. Glad you got to go.
ReplyDeleteOh Maggie- it was just SO wonderful wasn't it?!! Are you reliving it over and over again as you look at your photos? There are no words to describe all that you saw. Pompeii was amazing. Your photos are all so beautiful/-

Maggie, I am so happy you posted this, I've never been to Italy, looks just beautiful. Thank you for sharing.
ReplyDeleteReally neat pics Maggie! Sounds like you had a great trip:@)
ReplyDeleteLooks like you had an amazing trip! These pictures are beautiful!
ReplyDeleteThank you Maggie for giving us your delightful " Italian Journey".
ReplyDeleteThose centuries old established gardens are an amzing feast for the eyes. They create theatre with their wonderful architectural pieces and statuary.
I'm flying out to France on Friday to spend 6 weeks with my daughter and granddaughters in Burgundy!
I'm hoping to visit some gardens while in France. I may even get to Giverny this time - fingers crossed.
You've whetted my appetite quite nicely thank you!
