CELEBRATE NEW YEAR'S EVE 2010 IN VENICE

NEW YEAR'S EVE 2010 PIAZZA SAN MARCO VENICE

On the 31st of December, Love - the new Venetian way of celebrating New Year, will return to Piazza San Marco and Piazza Ferretto in Venice, on one of the most important nights of the year.

Once again, the New Year celebrations will culminate in a vast, communal kiss between over 60,000 people sending a message of love, peace and brotherhood to the world.

The format of Piazza San Marco this year is a spectacular program of music and lights, with projections that color setting of the historic buildings surrounding the square. At midnight the Bacino di San Marco will host a fireworks display that will light up the New Year's Eve. And for all, a toast with Bellini Canella.

FREEZING IN CHIANTI

After Roma we headed up to the beautiful Villa Marcella in Chianti. A magnificent large Tuscan homestead which was once part of a large Chianti wine estate but now is in the village of Cavriglia being built in the last 2 centuries. It was really now very cold in Tuscany and the villa was very hard to heat with central heating as it was so large.

A Week in Rome

Most of our first week in Rome was spent walking to the Vodaphone shop in Via Corso to try to get the two internet pens to work!! One for me and one for the children to stay in contact their friends -being teenagers, facebook had become very important. If anything is remotely difficult in Australia then the same is enormously difficult in Italy in another language. Lucky we were returning

Travelling in Italy with Children

I needed to spend some quality time in Italy viewing all the wonderful accommodation Passion for Italy works with and their charming owners so I had to take advantage of our two months summer school holidays. Being such a long flight for Australians it is madness to go for a short time as it takes a week to recover from jet lag…..it was November and I was not looking forward to a long hot summer with children bored and trying to work...

The Vatican Rome

The Vatican encompassing the Basilica di San Pietro and the Museo Vaticano, takes a whole morning to see. I always seem to go into shock when I walk into St. Peter’s basilica as  the majesty of the place is so overwhelming and the artistry – genius!!  I have such a sense of awe there that I cannot speak.
