Day in Malcesine in photos



Busy bee



I have been receiving complaints that I haven't blogged for ages, so here goes. I am shattered and I am so busy that I simply haven't had time. I should really be emptying the bins right now, but I will bow to popular pressure.

Since my last blog we have had several visitors and we have been all over the place. Firstly my grandparents came to Italy with Caravan and dog in town and decided to visit us. For me the most exciting part of the trip was the arrival of a food parcel, which might sound a bit mean, but you have no idea how much I miss my food!!!!! It was obviously good to see them too. We showed them around the town and then went to our little restaurant on the Torricelle. Always a winner because of the fabulous views.

Our next guests were Simon's parents. It took us a while to tidy the house to mother in law standards but I think we passed. They seemed to have a lovely time with us and were happy to follow us around. I even took them on one of our monthly hikes, which turned out to be a bit of a disaster but fun all the same. See pictures.

Simon then jetted off to India for two weeks and I think that he had a great time. I used the time to hibernate and acclimatize to the weather.brrrrrrrrrrrrr.

After the Darren, the best man came for a weekend and I went to England this weekend. HECTIC or what?

Now we are free to relax and await the joys of Christmas. Safe in the knowledge the the wedding is less than 9 months away, but that I have bought my dress!
