Beautiful pictures. Our Mom is going to Rome and plans on visiting The Torre Argentina Cat Sanctuary when she is there. We're proud that she has her priorities straight!

Those are lovely photos. We are glad your humans had a good time there.
ps
Kitty Yumbum was 15 when she went to the Bridge. She was the last of mum's cats and she was pining on her own, so our Beans got us for company for her.

But, um, where is the picture of George Cloony?

Oh they are some pretty piktures. Personally I would rather go to your holiday spot, but My Momma is drooling over the piks.
Momma loves old buildings and anything historically related, she says she feels the history of it all.. yeah right!
She says it looks so beautiful and she didn't know Italy had so many places like that, I mean you only listed 13..
OMG we wantz the farm house too!
Iz so very good of you both to let your Momma and dadda go to such glorious places like that! :)

Kate (Pablo's mum) said...

Hey, I think that cat might be my cousin! Living in Australia (a 'new world' country), we just don't have any human buildings that are so old. It's a shame... they're all so beautiful!

The photos are all so lovely. Tuscany must be a beautiful place. I also like seeing really old buildings with lots of history.

OHMIGOSH! My mom has photos from all of those towns too! How beautiful!

Mr. Chen and Ollie said...

Oh wow! Our beans went to Tuscany for their honeymoon before we were even born. They loved it there and enjoyed seeing your mom and dad's photos, too. They stayed at a farm in Arrezo. They said Tuscany was sooo beautiful and can't wait to go back someday.
Purrs,
