Lookit what she's done! She's put on twenty pikchurs and now there's no room furr our Easy on Sunday pics.She sez we're lucky she didn't post the other hundred and fifty too.
Anyway this furrst one is a park in Vigo in Spain. Mum sez they saw lots of dawgs and they pooped efurrywhere and no-one cleaned up after them. She sez they never saw a single kitty the whole time they wuz away.
Lisbon, Portugal.

Barcelona, Gaudi architecture.
This is the house where Princess Caroline of Monaco lives. Mum sez it is a surpurrizingly small house compared with most of them.
This is the Cathedral in Monaco where Prince Rainier and Princess Grace are buried.
Changing the Guard at the Royal Palace Monaco. This happens efurry hour on the hour.
Just a few of the yachts in Monte Carlo.
The world famous casino in Monte Carlo.

Colosseum in Rome
Circus Maximus, Rome.
Mum finks this is the Castel Sant Angelo. She sez it is hard to remember efurrywhere and she should haf written it all down.
The Beans were very thirsty so they stopped furr a beer. Mum thought she was asking furr a half litre furr dad and a smaller one furr herself, but they ended up getting a litre and a half litre.
This is the Vatican and every Sunday the Pope appears at the second window in furrom the right to give his blessing.
Mt. Vesuvius with modern Herculaneum in the foreground.
This is a street in Ancient Herculaneum. It is the neighbouring village to Pompeii, but instead of being buried in ash in AD79, it was buried by mud. The Beans went there instead of Pompeii because they had been told it wuz better preserved. They said it wuz furry inchresting. Mum said it felt very strange to walk along the same street peepull had been walking along until the volcano erupted nearly 2000 years ago.
There are many mosaics and murals that have survived remarkably intact.
Mt. Vesuvius furrom Naples Bay. Before the huge devastating eruption 2000 years ago, the two parts of the volcano were all one and the whole of the centre was blown out.
