Isn't this little girl in the pink coat cute? I made her picture in Frascati, Italy after I gave her Mardi Graz beads last December. Be sure to notice her little silver shoes! I have just about run out of pink pictures I had saved in draft, and decided look through my travel photos after Pat from Brooklyn posted a picture of a pink door in Ireland. Then, I remembered taking this little girl's picture on our trip to Italy.
We traveled with the Big Easy Jazz Ambassadors from New Orleans this past New Years to Rome. The group consisted of about 14 band members and lots of Mardi Graz bead throwers, which is what my husband and I did.
Frascati is a little town near Rome, and we were part of a parade that performed for a festival of American bands. For more on Frascati, click here.
We had so much fun visiting this small Italian town. The Italians were so nice and seemed to enjoy our visit. There were lots of small shops and cafes as well as churches to tour.
For other pink Saturday posts visit Beverly at How Sweet the Sound. Thanks for stopping by, and have a great pink Saturday!

Happy Pink Saturday! Someday I would love to throw beads too.
Diane, Frascati sounds nice. I love all things Italian, and Italy is the one place in the world I'd get on a plane to visit. Well, I'd probably go back to Hawaii, given the chance ... lol
Hope you have a good Saturday!
Sincerely,
Janie
Cute picture that must bring back great memories of the traveling. How fun to throw the beads!

Those pavers caught my eye; how artistic is that with the white intermingled with the gray. Mmmmm. Happy Pink Saturday.

Happy PINKness today! Thanks for the visit you made to me and the PINK pumpkins!! I could decorate for Halloween using that color!!!
Isn't it a blessing to finally hear that Shelia is OK and so is her mom...and that they've not suffered any loss of their home, due to IKE? I'm soooo relieved.
