It’s our last day of a brilliant month in Rome. How miserable. But as long as there are new adventures on the horizon then we’re good.
They say it never snows in Rome, but yesterday we had the magical experience of a seriously heavy snowfall for around an hour. Here’s a shot from our apartment window. Note the polar bear down on the street…
Jen, Sam and I ran outside and had a ball.
But that’s not the biggest news. The really big news, and we know everyone will be thrilled to bits to hear this, the news that we’ve been wanting to share with you all, is that Jen and I are, wait for it … proud parents of another Lightning McQueen car! That’s right, here he is, the new Lightning McQueen, who was discovered at a Disney store in Rome. We also bought King’s racing truck, but that will be a Christmas surprise for Sam.
Old Lightning McQueen is the light-red one, new Lightning McQueen boasts a classy, deeper shade of red
The family (at least the ones we brought with us) – L to R: Tim Rimmer, Leaky, Nitro, old Lightning McQueen, RPM, new Lightning McQueen, Chick Hicks, King
So we fly out tomorrow morning and have four days ahead of us in Singapore which will be spent splashing around a hotel pool with Sam, no doubt, with small breaks in between swims spent in Karen’s favourite coffee shop, Starbucks. Then we head home.
But it won’t be long until we’re back in Europe. In fact we’ll be landing again at Heathrow in nine weeks, on February 20, and who knows what new adventures that will bring!
Until next time Roma, farewell from the Trevi Fountain…
