⛱⛱ Just one more vintage postcard! The beach at Santa Barbara, California with the Princess cruise ship the Grand Princess in the background. There is a lot to see and do in Santa Barbara, shopping, seafood restaurants, water sports, a very cool pier, nearby Montecito and wineries. Lots of information can be found on https://santabarbaraca.com. And for posts more on California see www.mybrittrip.com Fun Fact: The pier is known as Stearns Wharf and was first built in 1872. #santabarbara #california #montecito #beach #vacation #holiday #vintagepostcard #postcard @brittrip2017 @rgtmum #www.mybrittrip.com #stearnswharf #princesscruises #grandprincess

I haven’t made one of these vintage postcards for a while. This one is Venice, Italy, a place so famous it doesn’t really need any more said about it. But if you do want to find out more, take a look at https://www.visit-venice-italy.com/address-tourist-board-venice-italy.htm And for more on Italy check out www.mybrittrip.com for Florence, Florence Postcard, Bellagio, Duomo, Milan and more Fun Fact: The Venice lagoon actually has dozens of islands aside from the well known ones of Burbank, Murano, Giudecca and Lido. #italy #venice #venicelagoon #vintagepostcard #postcard @brittrip2017 @rgtmum #vacation #holiday #www.mybrittrip.com #gondola #gondolier

👜👠👓The famous Galleria Vittorio Emanuele II shopping mall in central Milan. If you visit you will find that all the main roads seem to lead to this central place adjacent to the Duomo. Who was Vittorio Emanuele II? Victor Emanuele II was the first king of the kingdom of Italy. He reigned from 1861 - 1878. Before becoming king of Italy he was king of Sardinia. Anyway an interesting attraction, with many stores in and around the Gallery. Designer shops seem to predominate with less expensive ones a little further out. It is the oldest shopping mall in Italy. It opened in 1877. Fun Fact: At the Center of the mall is the a divot on the floor. If you put your heel in the divot and turn around you will get good luck... Fun Fact 2: There was a McDonalds there for 20 years until it was unable to renew it’s lease and a second Prada store opened. See my posts Florence and Italian Cathedrals on www.mybrittrip.com for more on Italy! #milan #italy #galleriavittorioemanuele #shopping #holiday #vacation @brittrip2017 @rgtmum #victoremanuel #www.mybrittip.com

🌷🌷Tulip time in spring is a big deal here in the Pacific Northwest. We have tulip farms in Oregon and Washington. These four lovely, colorful photos were taken at the Wooden Shoe Tulip Festival a couple of years ago. The tulip farm, near Woodburn, is usually open for about six weeks so you can see the entire range of color. This year, up until now, it has been wet and muddy but a brighter few days is forecast. The tulips though, look as beautiful as ever. Two of the tulip farms in Washington are Woodland and the Skagit Valley. Highly recommended for an afternoon excursion. For more on the Wooden Shoe Tulips see https://www.woodenshoe.com and for more see my post PNW Tulip Festivals here https://wp.me/p95jad-yL Fun Fact: You can fly in hot air balloon over the tulips!

So here’s an interesting photo today. These are Hawaiian palm trees, the sky is so blue...I am sure there is a song about that...Anyway it’s Friday and that’s as good a reason as any to sit back and enjoy the view!
