Vespa

It was such a joy to build this Lego Vespa! Last month I celebrated my 40th birthday in Sorrento with my husband so an Italian themed Lego set was the perfect antidote to ease those post holiday blues. The Lego set was a birthday present from my mum and stepdad. It's a lovely gift which will continue to make me smile and is a great addition to my collection. I have now completed four Lego sets so technically I could claim my Builder badge from the Rebel Badge Book (Volume Two) but I will hold off for now as I also got another Lego set for my birthday from my husband's mum and stepdad. Before my holiday in Sorrento, I made a start on the Linguist badge by learning some Italian. I have been using the Duolingo app and have also listened to a few episodes of the Coffee Break Italian podcast. I didn't make as much progress with my Italian speaking skills before I went to Italy as I was hoping. Work and health issues have interfered with my badge progress the past couple of month...
