  40. Thank you Roman, Curly, Lisa B and E Gee Bee!! I feel so at home in Italy. I have to convince my FIL on a weekly basis that I'm not from there - I'm a hand talker

    @Amber - I have hit all those same spots, in addition to Cinque Terre and Lucca. Lucca is also very special to me, because I saw an opera performance there in an old church and realized every time the Alto hit a certain note it made me cry. I finally had my Pretty Woman moment :)

    @Lisa B
    I don't think I harassed you into sending a photo until at least a week after I did. It may be a while, but I'll be on the lookout :)

    @Roman
    I know which one YOU are, but if you're not going to out yourself, I won't either

  43. Oh boy! You people just keep bringing the hotness!

  44. @Curly
    Oh, September is the BEST time to go! We stayed in Vernazza (in Cinque Terra) and it was the only place we had to wing it for accomodations. We wound up renting a room from a shop owner (great experience). Are you able to rent a place ahead of time? (Make sure you pack shoes to "hike" in)

    Rent bikes in Lucca if possible, and try to see a concert at this church

  45. I love these pictures! Always beautiful and interesting people!

  46. Sunny, be bossy! Especially when you know best or have good knowledge. My "other" name is boss lady Erin, cause I love to boss people into better vacations, campsites, restuarant choices, etc. I love a true bossy recommendation!

  47. That's me with dem twins - my pride & joy 24/7!! I honored to be included with all these wonderful CND readers! Happy Holidays to all of you & to you, Enty!

  48. Great photos and so happy they're being claimed!

    @Sunny you're so cute! I thought you were brunette but sunshine blonde suits you too

    Hi number 13 *call me sign*

  49. Oh, and well done Melanie on losing all that weight, I've put on about two stone in the last few years (too much wine me thinks), however I'm 5 ft 9, so didn't notice it creeping on, any tips? X

    ReplyDelete
  50. You guys all look so great!! Love all the readers with the pics around the world!
    Melanie, congratulations on losing weight, I admire your determination, that's awesome!!

    ReplyDelete
  51. #7 your dress is gorgeous and I love that you didn't pick a sleeveless dress. Only a very certain type of body look good in them (you probably would be one that looked good) but EVERYONE gets one now, to the point of being cliche, and 99.9999% of them look awful.
    Ever notice on those Say Yes to the Dress shows, pretty much every dress they pull for a bride to pick from is sleeveless, like that is all that exists. Horrible. Anyway, sorry to ramble, you look fabulous.

    ReplyDelete
  52. @Sunny, I appreciate the tips! :) We're going with another couple, and she is super planner (thankfully-because I'm not!) and has taken care of booking all the rooms,etc. We were supposed to go in April, but had to push it back to September. Everyone has been very accommodating, she's even scored free bike rental in Lucca! Will definitely try to see a concert at the church, thanks for the link! :)

    Sorry to hijack the thread, but if anyone has any tips/must sees for Munich, I'd appreciate any input!

  53. @Vicki E
    Yes! That is Florence, and you are right about the hair. I am naturally brunette, have had blond highlights since I was 16, but went back closer to my natural color within the last year. I love it!

    ReplyDelete
  54. thank you everyone for the nice comments :)

    @Jessica -- thanks!! yes, I was slightly obsessed with my dress. I am from the South and wanted a dress that my future daughters (if we have any!) would be able to wear...something classic. I also needed a dress that my grandmother would approve of. It's a Priscilla of Boston...they're out of business now, but were once a big name for girls in the South.

    I can attest that we are real people and not on pinterest at all!! thanks though...being on pinterest would be pretty fun!

  55. @Vicki E,

    I started watching what I eat and running a couple times a week. I don't deny myself food I want, but I use portion control. The running has really helped with the weight loss, it was hard going at first, but now I'm addicted. You can lose the weight!

    1. Thank you, I'll try running again, I have heaps of stamina walking and swimming, but really struggle running x
