For those interested to know about Palladio, here is a resume from Wikipedia:

Andrea Palladio (30 November 1508 – 19 August 1580) was an architect active in the Republic of Venice. Palladio, influenced by Roman and Greek architecture, primarily by Vitruvius, is widely considered the most influential individual in the history of Western architecture. All of his buildings are located in what was the Venetian Republic, but his teachings, summarized in the architectural treatise I Quattro Libri dell'Architettura (The Four Books of Architecture), gained him wide recognition.[1] The city of Vicenza and the Palladian Villas of the Veneto are UNESCO World Heritage Sites.

This little girl was having so much fun.
I was hypnotized by her looks and by her joy.

Happiness can come in so unexpected ways.
I hope you all find yours, no matter how tiny it presents itself, the important is how big it feels inside.

See you in 2012. Italy here I come.

Thank you all for you kind comments. I wish you a Happy Holidays.
