Hi Everyone,

As you know I went overseas recently and here are some highlights

I noticed that Italy were very clever with the space that they had (alot less than Australia). They all drove small cars and hotels rooms were designed in a manner that fit alot of things (bathroom, desk, wardrobe etc) into a small space. They also used available space for plants.

Did you know that parts of the colosseum were used to builded that Vatican home to the pope. They were reusing even back then.

This was in Rome.

A wishing fountain at the Vatican.

I was lucky enough to have dinner at a villa owned by Lord Acton (US) in Italy. They had a huge garden that went for miles

Venice. Here everyone gets around on a boat so there are no cars so much less pollution.
