Here we are again, traveling somewhere lovely, by photos! I can't believe it has been a month since our Travel Photo Friday in Tunisia! Where has the summer gone?
This month, we are headed to somewhere in Italy that I have yet to visit. I am always excited about the images of places I haven't been yet.
It's my little bit of escapism. My armchair travel if you will.
Reader Cindy Corbett submitted her delicious photo of Portofino. Her description is listed below.
"Portofino is so lovely – the little harbor, the color of the buildings and the dark green cypress trees that dot the landscape. I spent the day there with some friends and as we were leaving we passed a scrum of photographers and media – turns out they were following Silvio Berlussconi and his wife (it was happier times). I heard later that they were staying at a villa in the area – that would account for seeing the Italian Navy patrolling along the harbor. "
Thanks Cindy!
I don't know about you, but this makes me want to hop right on a plane and take up fishing in Italy as a hobby! What about you?

And on a totally unrelated note- did you happen to see the little brag badge on the right sidebar? Apparently, My Mélange has been nominated for Best Travel Blog in the Bloggers Choice Awards, 2009! I am very honored of course, and I'd be even more honored if you would VOTE for me! It is free and it only takes a minute to sign up!
I am headed to Vermont for the holiday weekend- so you can look forward to lots of posts about covered bridges, nature, restaurants and quintessential New England! The weather should be lovely- perfect for picture taking.
Enjoy your long weekend and see you next month, Friday October 2nd for our next edition of Travel Photo Friday.
