Rome pictures

More pictures of our sites in Rome.  Truly
a lovely holiday!

Rome Pompeii

I really enjoyed our visit to Pompeii.  This is a historian's dream. We walked around here for hours and I still think we did not see all of the sites. Pompeii was destroyed in 79 AD. There are still excavations on going today.

I would recommend this to travellers.

Rome Naples

We visited Naples on route to Pompeii

Naples is a beatiful costal city. We walked around and visited a ancient castle, however our time was limited and we were back on route to our next destination.

I felt like there was not much to do in Naples.

Rome Colosseum 2014

Rome is a beautiful city, filled with history, vibrant night life and lots of social friendly people.

In the 4 days we spent in Rome we went to see Colosseum.
The Colosseum stands on 2 ha of property.  Also known as the Flavian Amphitheatre.  Construction started in 72 and was completed in 80 AD.

One gets a 2 day pass to vist the Colosseum and grounds. You will most definitely need this time to appreciate everything you need to see.

When to start planning your next vacation


How long in advance does one plan their next break?  Be it a weekend bush get away or a 3 week vacation. What research is done prior to you choosing your next destination? Do you take into account the weather, if it’s a costal holiday would you be heading into typhoon season, or if it is a short break, how long is the trip and after a long day at work are you still able to drive and keep your family safe?

Do you check your vehicle? Before taking a long trip. Are your passports valid? Do you need a yellow fever certificate? Is it a malaria area and what medication do you need.

There are so many factors to consider and I’m going to help you plan your trips better with more insight and know how. Putting your next holiday into action could be as easy as one two three…..

Introduction


Traveling should always be a joyful time filled with excitement and many happy expectations. However sometimes one is  either let down by your travel agent, or have a misperception of what you felt you should have seen or experienced. Many times it can be daunting to travel alone or sometimes even over whelming to travel with small children. The planning involved before you take a vacation will set the atmosphere of the holiday. I have travelled with my children when they were babies and I have travel with them as young adults. I love planning our vacations, be it a trip away for a long weekend or an extended holiday. It does not matter if your idea of a holiday is camping under the night sky or spending it in a five star hotel. As long as it’s fun and your expectation is meat you will continue to have the travel bug!
