Hi everybody. The ABC tags are now past history, and we are off on our travels to Italy. My fave place is Rome, a town where I lived for a few months and enjoyed very much.
My tag made me problems, I couldn't fit everything on it that I wanted, so just made a small collage. Mr Umbrella Man also seems to be visiting. Instead of ribbon I added a compass spinner.
And here a picture from 1966 - almost as ancient as the ancient Romans! - showing me standing on one of the terraces of the Colosseum, with Constantine's Arch in the background. Miriam was 3 months old and not really interested in sightseeing! Sorry about the poor quality of the photo, it's just rather old and decrepit like me!
Have a good week you all, take care, and thanks for coming by!
Love this, Val, and the photo is gorgeous! Hugs, Sarah

Love the old photo of you ;) and the tag is cool as well Dxx
ReplyDeleteYour collage is fantastic - always in awe of collages ( mine always look as though I threw everything downwithout any relationship!). What a lovely memory too.
ReplyDeleteMaravigliosa!
