Views from the kitchen. C/Veneçuela (Barcelona, 2022)

We spent a long while driving around last night (this morning) looking for a good treeless aurora borealis viewspot away from the cities and also small but bright towns, and the place we spent the most time was just pulled over on a county road next to some farmland. It was right by the pond that's in my pics, and it smelled soooo strongly of both manure and stagnant pond water, and there was a chorus of frogs singing while we watched and took pics. Just an incredibly vivid sensory experience. Extremely worth getting back at 3:15AM.

Rome 2023 Day 7
Wed Nov 29
This would be our last day of sightseeing for Rome. We would leave the next morning, but we were out of the hotel by 6am and on a flight home by 9:30, so Wed would be it for us. After breakfast, we went to see Hadrian’s temple, which was really just a façade on the roman stock exchange.
the picture above is one I grabbed from wikipedia. I saw it, but since it wasn't where google said it was supposed to be, I was busy trying to figure out what was happening and didn't take my own photo.
But apparently, google maps has the wrong thing listed, so we ended up at Sant’Ignazio di Loyola church.
Shell and Tony went in, but I was going to stay outside. Then Nate went in and didn’t come out. We were starting to wonder if they all converted to Catholicism, but then Nate texted us that it was actually pretty impressive inside, so we all went in. They weren’t kidding… it was pretty impressive inside. The church was finished in 1650, and the ceiling fresco was by Andrea Pozzi.
But since we were going to the Vatican later, that wasn't even the most impressive church we saw that day!
We then caught a bus over across the river to a viewspot on the Janiculum hill.
After that we went up to lunch at Arlù, close to the Vatican.
Then, at 2:30p, we had a tour of the Vatican Museums, the Sistine Chapel, and St. Peter’s basilica
After that we went home to rest and change for a high-end dinner at Imago.
That was basically the end of our trip. The next morning we were out early and on a flight home.
I had been afraid that in the middle of such a tourist area, everyone would speak better English than I do Italian, and therefore wouldn't want to speak any Italian with me. But nearly everywhere I went, the staff answered me in Italian if I started with Italian. I was even thanked several times for making the effort. So overall, the trip was just great. We got very little rain, even though November is the rainiest month of the year. My sons were both with me in Italy again, this time old enough to really enjoy it. And I got to speak Italian for a week. we had no hitches in the scheduling and everyone was happy. I'm calling it a success.

Hey Osé! What are your favorite viewspots to go with Xelle? Seeing how you're a sailor (Onion corrected me on that), you must have traveled to a lot of places! :0 Cheers!
- (@haileyiscooldnfjdhd )
Sigh, Kryxelle called me a pirate again, didn't they? I tell you, there's a difference.
But yes, I have indeed travelled to many places. Maybe too much. Since Kryxelle has motion sickness, it's slightly difficult to travel by sea without stopping every so often (I'm not saying it's an inconvenience, but it does get me concerned). We went to this island in Maldives for our honeymoon, where there is a particular spot on the sea that shines like stars when you touch it. It was one of my favorites since I have been meaning to go there for a long time. I'm glad I was able to spend it with the love of my life.
The easiest spot we can go to is the beach nearby our village. Sunrises and sunsets are one of the most beautiful things you can take a look at, and with the horizon perfectly lined upon the edge, it adds more to the beauty. It isn't the same level as Kryxelle's beauty, though.
