Ravenna, Part 1

This past weekend, Lauren O., Nick and I took a trip to Ravenna, which ended up being a perfectly lovely city.  I will post more about it soon, but wanted to put up a few pictures for now.  Enjoy. 

Dante's Tomb

A few of my favorite mosaics:


 (above and below) A random ruin we stumbled upon that had a room of old mosaics in the tower




A neat nativity scene

Who doesn't love marigolds?

  1. You just gave me an idea for a really fun summer activity! You could replicate any one of these mosaics on our cement patio! Or maybe a montage of all of them....Shouldn't take long, right? You can thank me later. Always thinking of you, honey!
