EGYPT

Our 15mth old broke his collarbone so there has been alot of time spent at home and TLC. I'm feeling like a caged bird....He is mending well though so hope to be out and about soon. Amidst the chaos I had some me time to do a layout.
If I could go anywhere in the world it would be EGYPT. I want to see inside the pyramids and touch the walls painted by people many centuries ago...... There is so much history and another lifetime to discover and feel part of.
Knowing It will probably only ever remain a DREAM to visit, I could not pass up the opportunity to visit the Egyptian Antiquities from the Louvre Exhibition in 2007. I was so overwhelmed and in awe at the Mummified animals, Ramses Sarcophagus and all the golden treasures and manuscripts I was able to see. Unfortunately cameras were not allowed so I had no photos for memorabilia. They were however, selling hand painted pictures, made in Egypt. I just had to take something home with me so here it is.......


I can smell the mini quiches starting to burn so better run.... till next time ciao!!!!
