Today we started the never ending search for the best suppli in Rome - this bakery near us has wonderful ones but they are only available for a little while before lunch and sell out fast. They are wonderful risotto balls mixed with tomato sauce and have a gooey mozarella centre and they are deep fried. Heavenly. It was a beautiful day so we strolled through the Piazza Navonna and stumbled across the Cloister of Bramante next to the pretty church of Santa Maria della Pace.
The walk through the medieval streets is delightful with lots of beautiful antique shops. We had a stop in front of Hadrian's Mauseleum with spectacular views down the river to St Peters basilica. Luckily our apartment is centrally located so the walk back via the Pantheon was not too bad. After a quiet siesta we went to the gardens of the Villa Borghese and had the most expensive cocktails of all time in the pretty courtyard of the Hotel de Russie ($35 each!)

Looking like you are having a wonderful trip Karen - not too many of those fried cheesy ball thingys I hope !!! X Sharron
Your pictures look great i like the one of you eating a gelati. Me and kim think you look really good in all your photos. But im guessing you spent more time sifting through all your photos until you found a good one. Btw where is dad in any photos. Kim wants to know if you've left him for another man. Looks like your having fun cya.
I will try to ensure I put more gelati photos in as we try to have one every day. You are right I carefully select only decent photos of myself - bad hair days, fat photos, double chins etc are all erased instantly. Hugh is working as normal during the week but comes out to play on the weekend - I will put more photos of him drinking lots of wine or bird watching (his major activities)
