We’re Engaged
During our wonderful holiday to Limone, Lake Garda, Italy. I proposed to my wonderful girlfriend Ellie! While on a steep walk up towards the mountainous region of Limone we paused to observe the valley and the lake below alongside a stream, I knelt down on bended knee and asked ‘Will you marry me, sweetheart?’ to an instant reply of ‘Of course I will’.
A surrogate ring was presented from my pocket, an earlier purchase from our day trip to Malcesine. After a glass of wine in the nearby restaurant and a stroll into town, found us at the jewellers and discussing the potential candidates.
Celebrations ensued with plenty of bubbly wine and wonderful food at the ‘Gemma’, a fantastic restaurant on the edge of Lake Garda.
Upon our return our respective families are over the moon!
Time out – Holiday time, relax and gather thoughts
Well, it’s been what feels like ages since a decent holiday.
Tomorrow a short flight into Verona followed by a ride round Lake Garda on to Limone. A relaxing and well deserved holiday will begin.
Lets hope it’s going to allow the dust to settle in my life and give the impetus to get off my arse and do something more than ‘the norm’
I’ll try and use @Twitter and BrightKite while I’m away.
