Summer holidays report
This weekend, I managed to find some time to upload my holiday photos to the blog. I first thought of making a blog entry for each place I have visited, but finally I decided to have a single entry for clarity. Let’s resume quickly:
- Netherlands from 8th to 15th (with a 1 day trip to Bochum, Germany)
- Bretagne from 15th to 19th
- Netherlands from 19th to 21st
- Lavinio/Rome from 21st to 31st
This is it! Why make it complicated? Anyway, to tell you a bit more, a friend of mine came from Rome during the first week, and we travelled through the Netherlands (here is a photo gallery showing the North Sea beach and Haarlem). We also made a one-day trip to Bochum to visit two friends (and… here is the Bochum photo gallery).
Then I left my friend at the airport and headed to Bretagne, where a French friend had invited me with several other friends. It was a long trip, nearly 10 hours driving, but it was definitely worth it! We had a good time visiting, enjoying sea food, cooking nice meals in the evening, and of course tasting wine. The Bretagne photo album is also online.
The two days back in the Netherlands were nice relaxing ones, after which I took the plane to Rome. I stayed most of the time in Lavinio (Photo album included) with the family, went at the beach nearly every day with my sister’s family, and had a nice photo shooting session at the harbour of Anzio. I believe such harbours are the most beautiful ones. They are full of fishermen working on their boats or nets, the smell of fish is ubiquitous, and tourists are just showing up in the evening. Here is the Anzio photo album.
The last evening I was there, I tried to gather some friends, and I went with them to have a last real pizza before heading back to the Netherlands (where I can only dream of wood fire ovens…). Here are the photos of that evening.
For reference, here is a list of all new photo galleries I just added. Enjoy!
