Wow Martin, that selfie is awesome!! (ummm, although you don't look like you're having too much fun, it is great putting a face to those cool L-Papius griffin coins of yours!!) Oh, and fantastic photos of your trip (I have never been to Europe, so I am quite jealous) Ummm, here is the closest photo of me visiting Rome .... my niece, my nephew and myself are all attempting to do the "crane" while we're sporting our Roman olive-leaf-wreaths at the Italian pavilion at Winnipeg's version of Folklorama ...... yah, I admit that it's not quite like actually being in Rome, but it's all I got, my friend ... ... it's quite a sad story, eh? (hopefully one day soon we'll get to visit Italy)
i'm in the same boat as you stevex, i did have lunch at olive garden last month....that's as close as i've got myself. i do enjoying seeing pics you guys post of your travels...i don't get to do that in person (at least across the pond).
I was in Spain visited Empurius https://www.google.nl/maps/place/17130 Empúries, Girona, Spanje/@42.1304415,3.1184245,3a,75y,334h,90t/data=!3m7!1e1!3m5!1sL8mIiKdxp1wfo2rN26CbQA!2e0!6s//geo2.ggpht.com/cbk?panoid=L8mIiKdxp1wfo2rN26CbQA&output=thumbnail&cb_client=search.TACTILE.gps&thumb=2&w=203&h=100&yaw=334.19659&pitch=0!7i13312!8i6656!4m2!3m1!1s0x12ba5f42171786d9:0xee0fdbb9229e98a9!6m1!1e1
So...You have sported a beard, and now you are beardless. Would you consider a Goatee... a Half-As'd beard? Your pics are excellent. I was going to post some of my Bath pics, but you cover them so well on your site. Yours are superior, and I pretty much took the exact same pics!
It was fun viewing your photos, Martin. Great for 'point and shoots' but it doesn't seem to work with my DSLR......
Just to prove that i CAN smile...my eldest daughter has made me put this image of us walking back to our hotel in Sorrento here as illustration....
