My first trip to Italy in 30 years! The first Miniaturitalia. Superbly run by Sabrina (pictured below in Madrid ... no wonder I get Madrid and Milan mixed up).
Our 'Neighbours' at the fair, John and Hazel Dowd. The evenings were spent imbibing too much 'Grappa' an Italian drink introduced by Jan, and obviously enjoyed by John.
Angie's demo.
Kira spent most of the Milan trip in the Hotel room. She said she was doing her homework but I think she had a little help.
We took a day out to visit Carnivale in Venice. A really memorable experience. Everyone was either posing, taking photographs or both.
