woddo That's actually the Melbourne G.P.O. (General Post Office). Not a church, but over the years customers may have prayed for quicker service ... teehee

Lynn That is a great Chapter of Spain Cindy! Thanks for that! Although my mother was born in Madrid, I have still to visit Spain for the first time. The 12 grapes on New Years, the casual lifestyle, the food and wine... sounds like my parents house! Did you get to try any PAELLA? Flan? Hope your knee hasnt given you any more troubles :( Ive been invited to see Florence, Italy for my first time next Spring! I think ill go! Maybe youd like to return to Italy and meet Susanne & I there! Her son will be studying there for 9 mo. All good here at home. Finally Spring arrives! Thanks for your emails! Keep writing!

Lynn Hey Cindy~ Wow! Love your stories about France! I imagined myself walking thru it with you as I read. Glad to know weather is a factor and the extra bills I will need! All good here in HB but still very cold. 38 this morning! Continue your fabulous adventure with caution and ambition! Happy Valentine's Day GF! Take Care... Take
