My story? During our trip through central Europe my sister and I just had to visit the Meissen factory in former East Germany. We both love porcelain, especially vases. We got a (tourist) tour through the factory and right at the end was a museum with absolutely beautiful pieces. This one was one of them. I could have bought it as well I think: several thousand euros would have needed to change hands. In the end I settled on a small vase, which was dear enough.
Fontana di Trevi in Rome.

ReplyDeleteYeah, Harm beat me to it! Defo Treveni Fountain - but only ever seen it pictures like this. YAM xx
I like your use of 'dear.' I don't hear that much anymore, but I did hear it when I was younger growing up in a household not too far removed from England.
ReplyDeleteThat's the Trevi Fountain in Italy. We've seen it in movies but since our mom hasn't left North America she has never been in person.
ReplyDeleteThis looks like the Trevi fountain in Rome. I went to Rome in 2008 with a friend. We had a great time and stayed within walking distance from the fountain.
ReplyDeleteTrevi fountain in Rome. Was a bit too busy overthere.
ReplyDeleteI haven't heard of Meissen before. Trevi fountain but I haven't been, although I have been in Italy.
ReplyDeleteI say Trevi too. I've been there 2 times.
ReplyDeleteYay first time I can say I've been to one of your challenges.

I have not enjoyed a trip to Italy. I do think I might recognize it as the Trevi fountain from photos and a movie or two! So glad you were able to find a small, dear item from the porcelain factory. hugs, janice
ReplyDeleteIn this case the dear referred to the price (as in expensive), but it has become a dear (as in loved) treasure as well.
DeleteSorry for my late entry this week, but have had a busy week. Yes I agree it is the Trevi Fountain in Rome. I went to Italy in the mid 1990's with my mum and we both throw a coin in!! The film is one of my favourites too.
