Ullandhaug – Stavanger

July 30, 2015July 30, 2015 Posted in Outdoors49 Comments

My parents are away on summer holidays and for logistical purposes and for the change in scenery we decided to stay over at their place for a night. They only live a 5 minutes drive away from me, but you feel like you’re more away from the centre of town than that. When we were… Continue reading Ullandhaug – Stavanger

At the end of our tour of the Cinque Terre the boat took us to the town of Porto Venere. This is a lovely little town close to Cinque Terre. We had some time to take a look around here and I enjoyed walking in this cosy town. We did not have the time to… Continue reading Porto Venere

While in Italy we decided we had to do some sightseeing and decided to go for a full day guided tour to a place we’d heard many speak warmly about, so off we went to a guided boat tour of Cinque Terre. Cinque Terre means five lands and are the name of five fisher villages… Continue reading Cinque Terre

Here are some photos from inside the walls of lovely Lucca: This photo shows the amfi piazza, this used to be an amfi theatre but when it wasn’t used anymore they used the structure to build houses leaving a nice oval piazza filled with small restaurants and shops.

July 20, 2015July 20, 2015 Posted in Travel12 Comments

After the wedding we went off to a small town in Tuscany called Lucca. It is a very lovely little town where, as with many of the old towns in Tuscany the old part of town is inside an old wall. We stayed outside of the wall at a very nice hotel called, Hotel Napoleon… Continue reading Hotel Napoleon – Lucca

Tuscan Wedding

July 19, 2015July 19, 2015 Posted in Travel10 Comments

As most of you have probably seen from my previous posts, the main reason that we went to Italy for our summer holiday this year was to take part in my friend’s wedding. The venue was amazing! The ceremony was held under a large oak and the mayor of the town preformed the ceremony. It… Continue reading Tuscan Wedding

The wedding was held at an olive farm that is redone to be a  wonderful place for spending a holiday. There was two houses with lovely big rooms and nice bathrooms. The only draw back was the fact that it had no air condition and there was around 40 degrees when we where staying there.… Continue reading La Pievanella
