Something old, (Florence)something new,(streetpainter)
Something borrowed,(hubby Gunnar & daughter Serina also pushed the button)
Something blue.(me, longing back to Italy)

Ruby nightowls. Serina and I on the carousel just before midnight.
With a Mom who has to sleep in the middle of the day, there will always be late nights.
Serina made this picture of Gunnar and me resting on a genuine old stone bench before walking home.
Oh,to think, just two years ago we were the unconquerable trinity exploring the beauty of one of Europe's noblest cities.

Felisol,
ReplyDeleteWhat great photos and it sounds like wonderful memories for you!
Florence sounds like a fabulous city in which to stay a while. Happy Ruby Tuesday!
ReplyDeleteI have never been to Florence, but it's on my list of places to go! I'm sure my husband would enjoy it as well. Thanks for sharing your memories with us. Love the sidewalk chalk painter.
ReplyDeleteSuch a lovely City! I wish I am there now..Beautiful photos too:)
ReplyDeleteEnjoyed your photos! I really like the red bench below and reading about how you got it.
ReplyDeleteWonderful post! I'd love to return to Ruby Florence, too. ;-)
ReplyDeletePaz
I lve always dreamed of visiting the old cities of Europe.
ReplyDeleteVery pretty pictures.
Gunnar and you look so cuddly on that old bench.
Lovely series of photos. Thanks for sharing some of your trip memories with the rest of us.
ReplyDeleteIt sounds as you were homesick ! can understand that. We go back each year (to the Garda lake) my (italian) husband is from there. Of course I know Florence too.
ReplyDeleteThanks for this very personal post, and for taking us with you to Florence.
ReplyDeleteThanks for your comment !
ReplyDeleteno, no, lol ! Gattina means "kitty" comes from Gatta = the cat. It's like "Gatto" the male cat and Gattino the male kitty. I think everybody falls in love with Italy once he had been there ! You can always go back from Norway it's not that long ! We met a lot of danish and swedish people at the lake.
BEAUTIFUL SET OF PICS!!!
ReplyDeleteVery beautiful set of photos.
ReplyDeleteI like the last one,where Gunnar and you are sitting togetheron the bench.
Ruby adds a touch of romance to everything.

Great group of pictures. My wife and I lived in Naples for three years and visited Florence often. I was a long time ago, and sadly I have not been back. I will have to go back. Thanks for sharing your pictures.
ReplyDeleteI have been to Italy, but never to Florence. Hopefully next year I could fit in Venice, Rome, Naples and Florence. Beautiful shots :o)
ReplyDeletefabulous series of pictures..very beautiful...I love your header too..
ReplyDeleteThose are wonderful shots. I'd love to go there one day too.
ReplyDeleteYou and Gunnar look fabulous sitting on that bench with the soft glow of red on both of you. A romantic view!
ReplyDeleteThe people who do the sidewalk art have always amazed me. There's a guy here in the US that is good enough that he had his own TV commercial.
ReplyDeleteGreat series of shots!

ReplyDeleteAn absolutely wonderful post for Ruby Tuesday! Glad you're with us! The ladies in the hats - a generic painting in a condo for sale...
ReplyDeleteDear Felisol...I really think that you could make any city noble and romantic with your words and what matter ANY city as long as you are wrapped in Gunnar's arms? You are so much in love!
ReplyDeleteThat picture that your princess made of you two sitting on that splendid bench brings happy tears to my eyes, tears that are springing right up from my touched heart!...Love Terry
The photo of the streetpainter with the red elements is superb !
ReplyDeleteAnother victim of Italy's charm, lol ! I am a victim too I married an Italian !
