With Competa behind us, let's turn to Rome, Italy.  Yesterday was our travel day.  We flew from Competa, Spain to Brussels, Belgium and then to Rome.  We left the Competa house at 9 a.m. and arrived in our flat in Rome at 10 p.m.  Another long day with one piece of luggage left behind in Brussels, the airlines fault, not ours.  All in all, a successful day.

Our layover in Brussels, Belgium



You can't be in Belgium without trying over-priced, airport Belgium chocolates!

Yum!  It was gone in minutes!

Leaving Brussels at sunset.

While waiting for our luggage at the airport, there was a piano with a sign that said, "play me."  Paul indulged his mother and played "Drunken Sailor".  It was 9:30 p.m. with hardly anyone around, but a hoot all the same!

  1. Oh my, those chocolates called for me to paint them! As you know, I don't really like chocolate but I do love to use them in still life paintings! Hope they tasted as wonderful as they looked.
    Colorful love to all, Sandy and Rick
