April and a Roman Holiday




Business breakfast? love these gold lined Bowler Hats as pendant lights at 1st Class Lounge Birmingham Airport. Nearly missed the well awaited flight to Rome this Lounge was so nice!! 


Arrive in Rome in the afternoon.... cant believe the April weather 28 degrees heaven!! after suffering the cold English weather brrr.. so taking it all in while sitting at the base of one of the grand columns at the Vatican City



One of the many beautiful large lanterns in the Vatican city everything kept so clean! 


A view from the Vatican Musuem still cant believe the sunshine :0


Beautiful square in the Vatican Museum surrounded by Roman Sculptures & Roman Baths


Room after room of Breath taking Sculptures


Walking on Ancient mosaic.....really!!!


Such Animated Sculptures of Animals one of several rooms full of Roman Animals


One of the many Glorious ceilings in the Vatican


Fine Mosaic part of a border of a whole room


Vatican Musuem


Such detail on every room entrance you can see why so many people toured Italy for home Inspiration


Detail of Ceiling in the Map Room of the Vatican


Ceiling detail in hallway to the popes private quarters quite refreshing to see his nets could do with a wash!!


Columns columns everywhere!!!



In St Peters Basilica now.... I have never seen decoration like it!! wealth difficult to comprehend? But such beautiful Imagery & ceilings oh my gosh!!!


Just a small embellishment of the doorway?...


This fabulous coffee only cost us a euro funny to hear of a Brit that got ripped off 54 euros in Rome this week! really?


On we go another fab ceiling but in another Basilica


Poor Angels having to support that roof looking lovely though :)
