okaay!! I won't deny it i get a bit behind with this blog!!! and now for TUSCANY!!- (read from bottom up!) and Bruges and Wales

Manage to catch some sun in Bruges on our way bakc to the ferry and onto the UK again.
Trip to Wales was pretty wet- stayed just up from Betws-y-Coed in small village called Trefriw- went to one of my favourite gardens-Bodnant Gardens and looook who we found!!! - Erica with her parents- What a small world!! Ended up for tea at Ross-on-Sea and had a wonderful evening!




and finally..our destination in Tuscany...Casa Claudia Villa with a lovely view of the medieval town of San Gimigano.



A better look at just how busy Lake Como gets!




A little look at Lake Como- now in Italy. (you can start to see I'm looking a little tubby these days- am about 16 weeks pregnant! -its not all meat pies you know!)





Stayed the night in Chur and then onwards- stopped for a nice little coffee stop in Switzerland - at Silvaplana near St Moritz before crossing the border into Italy whre the sun was really shining!! and much to my pleasure shined all week!






This is us on route with bubble and whistletop! The roof rack was very handy, but whistled the whole way to Tuscany! This is a little stop in the Swiss mountains heading over to the Italian Alps, finally we had escaped the torrential rain that had followed us all the way from Britain. Lucky we were heading so far south!!
