Potted

It's 'Suicide Sunday' today when the colleges implore the students to be moderate in their end of year celebrations and the students ignore them. Though they were being very well behaved on Jesus Green when I walked through with camera there were quite a lot behaving like a@£$% in town. Still for 99% of the time they don't cause any bother. This photo was taken on Abbey Road - one of a very small number of Cambridge streets which is on a noticeable incline.
I'm AWOL this week as we are off to Firenze (via Pisa) - if I don't get my phojo back there I'm lost. I shall miss you all and catch up at the weekend.
Three GT:
1. Nice enough to eat outside this evening.
2. Hoping to meet one of my Lancashire cousins and her new fiancé in Florence if we can get there in time.
3. Just about packed and sorted and I'm paranoid enough to check the Advance Passenger Information and notice it was wrong!!
Lovely image Judith! Have a great time in Firenze - lucky you!

Someone has a very classy eye here, those pots look so wonderful against that white corner & the stone step...a proper step it is too with a proper 'lip'...that would take some ''donkey stoning'' in the old days!!

Have a fabulous, wonderful time in Florence...lucky you to see new photo ops & have your meals made!! Enjoy a good rest!

@happypat I've got my eye on one of these - lovely basement kitchens & I've always fancied stairs up to the front door - though I hardly go upstairs now so why I'd want a house with 4 flours I don't know!

As the others have said - the flower/door co-ordination is very thoughtful and I love your composition with only a section of the door showing. Have a great holiday!

I really love the composition of this. Hope you have a fantastic time in Florence. It is very near the top of places of my list of places I want to visit. Bet you'll get some fab photos

Have a wonderful time. I love this shot- the colors, contrasts, composition. I hate to think of the photos you will post if you get your photo mojo back!
June 16th, 2013  
Yes, but that is the obly one I did not book. I only walked up the steeple (not the bell tower) and didn't go inside as you get a great view of the inside from above. but book the tower of Pisa if you want to climb it. We also reserved for Galleria dell'Arte!

And you can have great food at Ruth's - it's kosher and vegetarian. Right next to the synagogue. And the Galileo museum is very interesting, has aircon and was pleasantly empty!
