[/caption]I was just relaxing in our Tuscan villa near Cortona when I realised that this was the perfect time to head outside, go down into the internet zone (similar to the "danger zone") and talk about my feelings.
It's 9.20pm currently, the temperature is very pleasing and I am sitting in the alfresco area where we have our breakfast. From here, I have an amazing view of Cortona, which is a town situated near the top of a hill and is probably now in my top 5 Italian towns list.
We went to the vatican last Sunday as it was free and the catholic church already has enough money. Here's a couple of videos around the area..
St Peter's Basilica

There was also a great park in the middle of Rome that kinda reminds me of King's park, although King's park is actually a lot nicer I would say. Near one of the sides of the park, lo and behold our eyes were met with our beloved Mark of the west, perfectly sculptured. They must have heard about his excellent drawing skills and mad figurine collection and erected an homage to him.
