Back from break and a holiday to remember

I think two months just flew. And I really mean when I say it just flew past.
Which also says that had a wonderful time.

My daughter was having her 2 months of summer holiday. And we all as a family had wonderful time. Went for cycling, walking, went to the beach etc..........but the best we loved doing was cycling. Sometimes when we went for cycling, we went to the cherry farm, bought a kilo of cherries and just sat on the fields and enjoyed the cherries ..........now just the thought makes me drool.

Then we went to Italy for 15 days. The choice to go to Italy was made by my daughter as she hads been doing latin in shcool for the last 5 years ans she wanted to visit the places she has been learning aobut ancient Rome.

Must say we had a fabulous time.
First we went to Rome, stayed there for a week as there was so much Shyama wanted to see. Then from there we went to Naples, then to Pompei, climbed Vesuvius, Sorrento , Paestum and back to Rome and the back home.

I think this is one of the best holidays we had, ( but then i say that after every holiday) especially if i think about the food we had.
I had best tasting pastas, pizzas, buffallo mozeralla cheese, oh and then the gelati. That just was so so so good. I make at home, but i think you can't beat the real ones in Italy and the variety of taste........ wine, the white wine we had every evening was just so so good.
If i talk aobut the food I might sit here for too long , so i will just say each meal was pure pleasure :-) Oh did i say had the best limoncello in sorrento.
I think I have tried lots od new dishes which I will sure try to make them at home, just have to look for the recipes on the net.

Ofcourse I did have half a day of shopping, so did some shopping for baking goodies and then bought some sundried tomatoes etc..........

You ladies light be saying you didn't do shoe, cloth and bag shopping in italy.
I didn't , my daughter did. She went crazy for shoes there and as she is a teenager mom took a back step in buying all that and gave daughter the pleasure.
Well i should say i hope I go back to Italy as hubby is going next month.

So here are some pictures from our trip.

Goodies i bought from there.
