Time Out

While I am away my book is nearly completed. It's a prequel to my travels.

And this is a Special Double Edition too! That's two stories in one!

I will return to the motherland this Friday..until then I've got to get out of here!

Dance like the Gypsies do...

Well, this is more like it...now let's shape what my gnomie momma gave me!
Hey, nobody said anything bout swords! I gotta get outta here!!

See any Gnomes?

A stop in St. Andre..a 17th century village surely will turn up some fellow gnomes?? Don't ya think?

Bratslavia or BUST

But not me..bust that is..it's land ahoy in Bratslavia (Slovakia) and then into the mountains. I thin it's about to get interesting. Great dangers ahead!

Opera Night

Gerome does Opera? On this evening they attend the OPERA..how refined! It's held at the Schonbrunn Palace in Vienna.

I can't find my ears? You can't see them either! I don't even know if I have any? How will I enjoy the opera??

Palace & Operas

September 19: Gerome visits the Vienna Emperor Franz Hofburg Palace & attends an Opera!

Can a high pitch shatter plastic as well as glass?

Day 1: MS Little Prince Riverboat

Sept 18--Vienna, Austria onto the Little Prince Riverboat for cocktails. (Lynn) "I'll limit him to one only!" She writes this in her itinerary.

Danube Discovery Cruise

Gerome's off again!!
This time to: Austria, Slovakia, Hungary, Croatia, Serbia, Romania & Bulgaria on an amazing "old world" cruise through seven countries and five capitals in some of the less traveled parts of the Danube River. Oh what an adventure it will be!

A Grotto Gnome

Well we all heard about garden gnomes..but grotto gnomes? I do like the lighting! And the colour is a close match to my little blue coat..but do you think it drains me? Huh, do ya?

You lift me up

So I can walk on mountains..literally! I wonder is a chair lift to the peak of Capri Island is in store for me?

If not then maybe........

Meet me in Amalfi

Ah, now this is more like it! This looks like an ad for Travelocity!

What a view! And look at those pretty flowers..I'd try to sniff one but I'm afraid I'll lose my footing and fall to my death!

Stoned

Well, this isn't what I had in mind?..you know..people entombed in stone..and so many of them? I feel a bit creeped out..somebody get me out of here!!

Woody

There will be a pit stop in Sorrento at the Notturno Inlaid Wood Factory..while gnomes might have once been carved from wood, I have no nostalgia..I'm made of some sort of plastic resin! But perhaps another acquaintance will be there that day?

Gerome in Assisi

I see, and you can see, Gerome in Assisi..and as word has it..he did meet Fabrixxio..and Fabrixxio was thrilled to get his photo...great job Mary!!
