This is one of my favourite photos from Rome. This is the Trevi Fountain -in case you didn't know. The photo was taken on a rainy day -stating the obvious- we had walked from our hotel to the Fountain and on the way there black clouds gathered and by the time we got there, it was raining - we didn't have umbrellas, but we'd brought rain ponchos. Which are a very good thing, except that they get wet and when it gets time to take them off again, where do you put it?

But nevermind that. Because it was raining I put my camera under tha poncho and then I thought, well hey, I am going to take pictures like this. I like how it makes the picture seem slightly out of focus. And I also like how it reminds me that being on holiday isn't always ice cream and sunny skies. Holidays are like life in that way.. ;-)

Anyway, why am I posting this now? I have no idea - I guess I just needed a picture for this post. ;-)

However, it does sorta tie in with the fact that we are going on holiday tomorrow - a week in Denmark! Yay! I am so happy. I get to celebrate my birthday (on Sunday) with my parents and my friends. I can't think of a better way to spend my birthday.

I don't know if I'll be posting while we're away, but I have prepared a few posts that will appear as if by magic through the week, so you won't be completely deprived. ;-)

To celebrate my birthday, there's 33% off all items in my shops with a price tag over $10 until Saturday May 2. All you have to do is write 'CAKE' in the message to seller and I'll refund you the 33%. This only applies to the actual item, postage is not included in the reduction. So if you want one of the crochet blankets, now's the time to strike! Artfire shop & Etsy shop.
