Below a slideshow of a few photo's from our cruise holiday in the 'med, part of this was to Italy, which was a first for us so we visited all the famous - must see - places, in scorching heat and me with a painful knee, perhaps the reason i don't smile too well on the photos. The top photo is showing Mount Vesuvius overlooking the bay of Naples, a sad visit for me as it reminded me of my dad who was stationed there during the war in 1944 when Vesuvius last erupted, I have included a photo of that event that Dad brought home with him. The Barcelona market was fantastic, the stalls all works of art the way they were so perfectly set out and ' colour matched' so I just had to take pics in there. In the chocolate stall photo OH is trying to get to the stall but the lady is determined to keep sweeping ( dust all over the chocs - oh dear.)
