In front of the Panthenon in Rome.
Making wishing by throwing three coins in the Trevi Fountain. It is supposed to ensure our return to Rome and a marriage to come soon!?!
The Roman Forum, the ancient Roman marketplace.
The Colosseum and the Arch of Constantine.
Sicilian Marketplace, where the Sicilians go to get the freshest ingredients for that night's dinner.
Temple of Concord in the Valley of the Temples (Agrigento, Sicily).
Prickly Pear Cactus...they grow everywhere just like in Mexico!
The Bar Vitelli they filmed all the bar scenes of the Godfather.
The view...
Mount Etna, the active volcano still has snow all over it.
Valley of the Temples at night.
Wow! What a view...those Greeks could really pick the spot for their temples.
Vineyard after vineyard.
Mosaics at the Villa Romana del Casale, a perserved Roman villa.
More temple ruins.
Italian police?
On the bus.
So, I almost forgot the months between Christmas and Summer...
I went with my mom to Sicily and Rome, Italy for her (guess what number)th birthday! We had so much fun!!! We want to plan to go on a cruise to Scandinavia and Russia for my 30th birthday (Cris can come on this one). :)

LUCKY!! Those are some really beautiful places, I'm glad you got to enjoy them.
It's good to see you posting blogs again. Although I understand how life is sometimes - my blog as you can see is not updated too often - but it's good to stay in touch and I love seeing what you and your hubby are up to. Hopefully sometime soon we'll go to the same Glassford vacation and I'll finally get to meet him!
Wow Jen SOOOO cool! What an amazing trip! xoxoxo
