Next stop on our holidays and the third country we visited was Italy. We stopped off in Rome- the Eternal City. It is absolutely beautiful, no matter where you look the architecture and heritage is amazing. We decided to take the red bus tour to see as much as possible in a short space of time. Hope you enjoy my photographs and if you have time do check out my previous posts from Palma De Mallorca in Spain and Marseille in France.

As a follow on to my post on Palma de Mallorca, the next stop on our holidays was the
city of Marseille in southern France. I have visited the south of France before taking in Monaco, Nice and Cannes so it was nice to explore further along the coastline. Marseille is France's oldest city and as a result it is steeped in history. The weather was lovely when we visited and we spent a lot of our time around the lively Vieux Port (Old Port).

Greetings everyone. I've been absent from blogging in a while as I have been away on holidays. We booked our holidays back in January and didn't go until mid September so it was a long wait but well worth it. We visited three counties and one island on our holidays this year. So first up, here are my photographs from Palma De Mallorca, hope you enjoy them...

Hello everyone. This weekend we were at a wedding. It was a lovely day, so today we are taking it easy and relaxing. In the snug we have the wood burning stove going. Meanwhile in the living room, things are coming together well. The carpet was fitted last week and I have started to put some things into the room. I have to choose some curtains and furniture now. I bought the fluffy throw in penneys (primark). The blue vases on the fireplace were both seperately at two car boots sales. I was delighted to be lucky enough to get the matching one- a real bonus! I would love suggestions on furniture and other accessories for the room? Please do give me your opinions/ideas?

Autumn is well and truly here now. The days have got shorter and there is a chill in the air. As we didn't have that good of a summer here in Ireland I am glad Autumn is here. I love Autumn time with the beautiful colours of the leaves and the crispness of the air. It is also an excuse to keep cosy at the fire, read lots of books and blog more. Do you like Autumn time?
