A view from my bedroom

A little late, but here it is.

Nottingham

Missed the actual theme day, but just to give you an idea - we have been to the UK. Sheffield, York, Nottingham, Milton Keynes and back to Brussels. So take a look at Nottingham DP for my belated theme day.

A mailbox at the ...

... Vatican! Now who saw this one coming? I knew that taking a photo of this Vatican post box while in Rome will come in handy one day.

Some interesting trivia: the Vatican sells Vatican stamps 'Citta del Vaticano', blessed by the Pope (!) and the only ones allowed in this Vatican mailbox. It also seems that the Vatican post is a lot faster than the Italian one, so Italians have been posting their mail from post boxes as above. Only hic-up in all this? The post boxes can only be found within the Vatican...

You've got mail around the world:
London (UK) -Grenoble (France) -Rotterdam (Netherlands) -Greenville SC (USA) -Hyde (UK) -Villigen (Switzerland) -Albuquerque NM (USA) -Mazatlan (Mexico) -Montréal (Canada) -Stayton OR (USA) -Shanghai (China) -Jing -Arradon (France) -Sequim WA (USA) -Newcastle upon Tyne (England) -Seattle WA (USA) -Kim -Bastia (Corse) -Minneapolis MN (USA) -Kuala Lumpur (Malaysia) -Joplin MO (USA) -Sharon, CT (USA) -Cottage Grove MN [USA] -Houston, TX (USA) -Candice & Megan -Singapore - by Keropokman. -Guelph, ON (Canada) -Menton (France) -Monte Carlo, Monaco -Naples, FL (USA) -Kyoto (Japan) -Tokyo (Japan) -Aliso Viejo, CA (USA) -Cape Town (South Africa) -Jakarta (Indonesia) -Kitakami (Japan) -Tel Aviv (Israel) -Vantaa(Finland) -Guadalajara (Mexico) -Auckland (New Zealand) -Nelson (New Zealand) -Tuzla (B&H) -Brussels (Belgium) -Anderson, SC (USA) -Lubbock, TX (USA) -John, Melbourne, (Australia) -Stavanger (Norway) -Tenerife (Spain) -Stockholm (Sweden) -Boston, MA (USA) -Not Strictly Seattle, Susan -New York City, (USA), Ming the Merciless -Paris [Eric], (France) -Ampang (Selangor) -Sydney (Nathalie) Australia -ailea , HI (USA) -Manila (Philippines) -Sydney (Sally) Australia -Cork (Ireland) -Saarbrücken (Germany) -Saint Paul MN (USA) by Carol -San Diego, CA (USA) -Mexico [POLY], (Mexico) -Budapest (Hungary) -Singapore (Singapore by Zannnie) -Madrid [Dsole] (Spain) -Nottingham (England) -

Men at Work

I am going to cheat. Well not cheat, cheat but show you men at work (the theme for today, 1 March 2007), but not at work in Brussels. As I have been abroad I did not get the chance to photograph men at work in Brussels so I opted for two men at work in the ... Vatican!

I spent my birthday in Rome (oh beautiful Rome), so here is a glimpse of two men hard at work at the Vatican entrance/ exit. It was difficult to get closer so I hope you enjoy the photo as it is.

What annoys me is ...

No, it is not the church. But what really annoys me is the constant grey sky ... every day, every seazon, grey sky wherever you look. Oh, and the rain! Don't even get me started on the rain.

In the photo, the Saint Augustine Church built in 1936.

Audrey Hepburn and a Happy New Year!

What better way to start the year 2007 than with the best photo of the year 2006? I don't know if it was the best but it was the most viewed one and ... a surprise to many. So here it is again, my (personal) choice for photo of the year 2006: the commemorative plaque for Audrey Hepburn.

A very HAPPY NEW YEAR to everyone!

Thank you to Denton from Greenville DP who is helping the Brussels DP while I am abroad.
