So normally I don't post personal stuff on my blog..... but this is Italy! So I'm going to put it on here. In May my husband and I had the chance to go to Italy for three weeks in celebration of our one year anniversary. My husband served an LDS Mission in Italy, so he is fluent in Italian.... which definitely came in handy. Here are a few of my favorite shots from the trip. Next stop France!!! .... okay maybe not for a while. A girl can dream...

Now I kind of love this photo. There was a bunch of protesting going on right in front of the Colosseum. The Polizia was standing by in formation just in case something were to happen. Nothing got out of control, but it made for a good shot. |

Beautiful light in Rome |
|
Love love love all the cobblestone around Rome. Of course my feet weren't too happy with me once the day was done. |
|
So many smart cars! I definitely fell in love with the old Fiat cinque centos though. The were so adorable. |

Sooooo many scooters in Sorrento! |
|
Sorrento is known for it's lemons. There are lemon orchards everywhere. They are famous for a kind of hard lemonade called Lemoncello. (we didn't try it, but we heard it is good) |
|
They also grew oranges. There were orange trees that would line the street. |
