2016-05-22 AGRITURISMO SICILY
What’s this, Agriturismo? Often farmhouses embedded in beautiful landscapes, with original food, wine, cheese and local specialities. Wining is done very professionally with state of the art distilleries. They offer wine and olive oil tastings, really good, but be careful if this starts forenoon, because of the wine … 🙂

2016-05-20 BRIDGES IN VENICE
There are many, many bridges in Venice, sure because with those many canals it is a need to cross them. They come in in different heights, form factors and widths, but you’ll not find many with flowers. This one was near the Piazza San Marco. I did this photo after I bought some of the very nice colorful drinking glasses which are unique to Venice and Murano.
2016-05-19 AGRA AND OTHER TEMPLES
The Taj Mahal is not the one and only sight you can see in Agra. I would recommend the Tomb of I’timad ud Daulah, also a mausoleum and a little Taj Mahal. Surrounded by red brick walls it resides in a green park scenery, near the river Yamuna.

2016-05-18 BAG STORE IN VENICE
The Italian style doesn’t stop in the streets and with architecture, it continues in many shops and restaurants. The color tones and quality of those bags is wonderful, but from the price it’s also on the higher side. But looking is inexpensive 🙂

2016-05-16 SUNNY DAY IN AMERSFOORT
Amersfoort is a Dutch city with all ingredients for a beautiful day. Some canals, city wall, old town, Mondriaan exhibition, shopping street, beer pub and some cool dining destinations. Also really nice alleys, as shown on the photo here.

2016-05-14 NO, THAT’S NOT ROME
When I showed this photo to some friends, they thought this is a backyard of a building in Italy or Rome. But I did this photo in the Metropolitan Museum of Art in NY. I think this could fool many people, often reality and fiction are not so far away.
