take me back to italy.
take me back to waking up with nothing to do but explore.
take me back to cups and cones of gelato. sometimes twice a day.
take me back hotel hoping and train traveling.
take me back to not a worry in the world.
take me back to plates of pasta and pizza. {yumminess that's out of this world}
take me back to colored houses, romantic canals and cobblestone streets.
take me back to history and art; plenty of it, mind you.
simply just take me back.
{i guess, i should say us- because i wouldn't dare, nor want to, go back without lovebird.}
what inspired this random post?
well, you see-
it seems that everyone around me either has travel fever,
is out exploring somewhere exotic
or has been blogging about their dream vacation.
i'm convinced it must be this time of year.
this busy time of year,
where we feel so tied down to all of our responsibilities.
this time of year, when holidays are at the tips of our fingers,
therefore we're surely anticipating those blessed days off.
or perhaps, it's the change of cold weather that suddenly
leaves us begging to feel the hot sun that just seemed to have left us.
regardless, we are all allowed to dream of a vacation, right?
if you could go anywhere tomorrow,
where would you pick to go?
meanwhile, since we are all "stuck" here in "normal" life-
let's dwell on our memories from vacations in the past
and dream of those that are hopefully in our near futures.
maybe then, our dreams of traveling will magical drift into reality.
my fingers are crossed.
