My World of Wonders May 6, 2026


Where am I? All has gone to plan, Rome. 

Where are we headed? Milan, then Vienna. 

What am I collecting? Memories and experiences. The things that make us who we are. 

What do I think of Rome? Rome is amazing, I have been here a couple of other times, it can be crowded, noisy, dirty, it is filled with wonders. I could live here. 

Where am I? We are just a couple of blocks from the Vatican

How was the trip across the Ocean? Good, comfy, quiet. Cool and occasionally wet.  But no sea serpents or pirates. 

Being back on land with WiFi, I am able to do some editing, and visited many of my regular blogs this morning. All is going well.  
Where was I yesterday? St Peter's


An amazing shop near the Pantheon. 


I lit a candle in a church near the hotel, for a dear person who is doing much better, but still grieving. 


I am on a digital detox. This post was written ahead of time and edited slightly to appear today. I have not missed posting at least once per day in over a decade. While on this detox, I will not have internet access many days, when I do have access it will be limited. Please continue to leave comments, but I may not reply to comments. I will read comments when I can. Normal service will resume in late May.

  1. Ok, you are not home. Italians are not very good at restraint, from food to architecture.

    1. Will do. We have been having fun with all of the Pope Bob items. Sweet Bear graduated from Villanova with him in 1977.

  4. I remember those shops with the amazing food items. I also remember being in total awe of Rome. The city is so full of ancient history. You see it around every corner. I'm glad you are enjoying it all.

  5. So nice to see your toothy grin selfie. Great shot! Blogspot is being really annoying. I found this post by simply checking your blog.
