Last time I was in the Sistine Chapel I was kind of glad it was packed with people so I didn't have to worry about falling over backwards while looking up.

I love the 1920s, but I agree that a fair bit of money would be necessary to enjoy visiting in that era.<br /><br />I actually have pictures of Regency locations for The Steel Rose, the next book in the trilogy. Unfortunately, I don't think I'm going to get to Waterloo before the book comes out, so no photos of that.Nancyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13705259501965011703noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-57166953240040768.post-84471981845790234532019-06-13T16:14:29.480-04:002019-06-13T16:14:29.480-04:00Thanks, Nancy!
