Oh my!

My sincerest apologies for being so remiss in my blogging duties! Internet and computer time can be a little hard to come by at times.. I'll do my best during the rest of the trip, and then once I'm home, a full account of my trip will be in order! Pictures, stories, the works.
But for now! A brief, or maybe, not so brief, picture montage.


 Got it!

The rain in Spain..

Does not stay mainly on the plain! It's rained almost every day that we've been here.. Thank heavens for my overcoat and sturdy boots! Still no time to post pictures yet, don't want to take up too much time on these shared computers. But never fear, I'm accumulating them along with clever anecdotes to accompany them. Coming soon to a computer near you.

I wish to set myself adrift on a sea of pasta with pizza icebergs.

Finally heading to Italy tomorrow! I can't wait. Greece has been fun, but its time to blow this popsicle stand!

Edit: I'm in Florence! So much nicer than Rome. Less like an amusement park..

This one fits a bit better!
We went to the Poet, and my companions got awesome handmade leather sandals, but I'll stick to my sturdy boots.

I'm so excited!

















And I just can't hide it! That's the song playing this second morning at breakfast, and it couldn't be more appropriate. We had a fun time at the beach yesterday, and today we're off to the market! Have to type and dash, so no pictures yet, but I'll get some up soon, promise!

The final countdown.. dah dah daah daahhh!

Gee willikers! Can you believe I leave in less than three days?! I can't. I hope I've got everything I need. Red hat: check. Blue pants: check. Snazzy buttons: double check! Yup, that's everything. What more could a gnome ask for?

Greetings! I am Ferdinand. A gnome. That roams. Cliche, I know.. Go ahead, get it out of your system now.

...


Moving on!

In less than a week now, I will be traveling far and wide across Europe, starting in Greece, continuing to Italy, infinity, and beyond! Lucky for you, I'll be posting lots of pictures of all of my adventures, so stay tuned, for the continuing story, of gnomes en route..
