37 Days – Holiday project.
It was purely chance that these last two days of the “37 Days – Holiday project” saw us away from it all, in foreign parts, on holiday… if a weekend away can really be called a holiday? But it certainly had a holiday feeling.
Strolling through the Golden Rectangle ( or whatever they call the area littered with all those famously named shops) I couldn’t help but notice the brightly polished door bell pushes.

In this shopping arcade (Vittorio Emanuele II) it seems that all the big names are present. Prada has had a shop here since about 1913, Gucci is also present as is Louis Vuitton on the left of the picture…. and McDonalds on the right.

Last but not least, a view of the hotel reception area. A true holiday feeling as I sit in the cool having collected our luggage, before going out into the heat of mid afternoon for the short walk to the railway station.
I will no doubt be writing some sort of summary about the “37 Days – Holiday project”, but it’s just turned midnight, so I’ll leave that for another day.
