Saturday Snapshot...Formia, Italy...


On our honeymoon to Italy, we stopped in Formia an hour south of Naples, which is where my husband's family is from. We met with relatives for a couple of days and they graciously took us through the town. Even with clouds in the sky, it's absolutely gorgeous.

    Oh that is the most beautiful picture! You are right, Natalie. Even though the clouds are a bit dark, it totally doesn't distract from the greatness down below. Thanks for sharing this with us!

    Awesome photo. I backpacked through that area in college, but I would love to go back today with the kids to see it through their eyes.

    The clouds cannot detract from the beauty of Italy. I spent a few days in Sorrento and then drove up the coast and it was just gorgeous. We probably passed through Formia on our way to Rome.

    Very beautiful. My husband's family is from Massa Lubrense, which is next to Sorrento (also just south of Naples). We're going there for the first time next March. Can't wait!
