And I thought that the Snow White grotto WAS a bathroom? Guess that explains the strange looks from other guests.<br /><br />Katella Gate, I love the grotto at night especially… people don't seem to congregate there after dark, for some reason. <br /><br />JG, I am very jealous that you were at Villa d'Este so recently!!<br /><br />Alonzo, when Santa Fe stopped its sponsorship at the park, it was a dark day.

The hues of azure make it even more especial. <br />Thanks for posting.Alonzo P Hawkhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10529651580262634489noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25922463.post-18348052405990557242014-12-04T09:17:58.678-08:002014-12-04T09:17:58.678-08:00Hmm, Villa d'Este.

For a bishop's palace, the Villa Garden sculptures were pretty racy.<br /><br />JGAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25922463.post-77994109547095619422014-12-04T09:08:57.281-08:002014-12-04T09:08:57.281-08:00The Snow White Grotto was always a magical corner ...The Snow White Grotto was always a magical corner of the park: quiet, picturesque, and with a little show: the fountain animation with the clever "echo in the well" performance of "I'm wishing".

It looks turquoisier in most pictures of that era.<br /><br />I can never look at a picture of the Snow White grotto without thinking "I really hope there were bathrooms nearby." It always puts me in the right state of mind to... you know... go.Melissahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06169920944565828337noreply@blogger.com
