The stunning bridges of Venice

Bridge of Sighs.
This infamous bridge connects the Doge's palace with Prigioni. It's often looked at and thought to be romantic, situated in a wonderfully beautiful part of the city. It's Italian name is the Ponte Dei Sospiri made in limestone.

Rialto Bridge.
This photogenic bridge is situated across the main pedestrian bridge of the Grand Canal. The bridge is close by to many shops and authentic markets, making it extremely accessible and popular. 

Scalzi Bridge. Literally meaning 'The bridge of Barefoot Monks'; It connects Santa Croce, Cannaregio and the Santa Lucia Rail Station together. Completed in the early 30's, its stone structure still remains in tact and gives beautiful views down the Grand Canal. 

Calatrava Bridge. This is not your typical Italian bridge, as it's Venice's newest. Smoothly using its curve edges to span the Grand Canal. Made from glass steel , it was completed in 2008 and adds a modern touch to the city.

Treating Mum 'Abroad Style' this year- Give her something to really smile about

On the odd years, when Mother's Day tends to get a little repetitive, I find myself thinking of something that will really show my appreciation for my Mum. I think most hard working Mums out there really do deserve a nice break away, or at least the opportunity to feel free from the daily banes of life for a few days.  Treating Mum 'Abroad Style' this year- Give her something to really smile about

That's why I have come up with a few interesting ways on how to turn that tired smile into a shining grin this Mother's Day.

Spa Weekend

Would a back massage in Italy or a simple Spa day at your local hotel go down a treat with your Mum? I think this must be most women's dream, having a full day of pampering to themselves. With in-Spa Jacuzzis, swimming pools saunas, and a personal masseuse at the ring of a bell, what more could a hard working Mum of three want? Not only has been relaxed proved to help our mental and emotion selves, it's a great way to show your appreciation for your Mum, and is way better than turning up to the house with just a card, a surprise won't hurt! 

Take her with you!

Okay, so maybe not for your main summers party holiday with your friends, but been able to bond with your Mum in some of the greatest shopping malls in the world and treating yourselves to a new hair do will prove just how close you bot really are. The chances are your Mum will be flattered that you want to take her away and spend some quality time together. So surprise your Mum and offer to take her on your text holiday with you. Even suggesting that  she 'needs a break' will show her how much you care, and how much you have thought about how to giver her an ultimate break from reality. 

Plan a holiday

We all know that the perfect getaway from day to day life is the best thing in the world. And having deals from under £100pp on site, you wouldn't even need to spend hundreds. You could even start to talk about the idea of a perfect holiday, and help your Mum come up with a plan on how and when she'd go. Giving your Mum that little something and idea on having a break from it all will give her something to look forward to- and will love you for it. By giving her a little towards a deposit could really allow her to believe that in just a few months she could be jetting off somewhere exotic. 

Turkish Bath

The chances are if you have ever experienced a Turkish bath you'll want to do it again, and was more than likely taken out whilst abroad. But did you know? That not only can you re-live this memory again whilst on holiday, there are now several spas and leisure facilities that offer this service around the UK. It has said to be the ultimate relaxer, as you'll get to experience being pampered to high heaven. It's also known to leave both men and women in a complete trance after not experiencing something so tranquil ever before! You could even suggest this for their next holiday, and show them reviews and pictures of just how stylish and worthy a Turkish bath and Spa really is. 

Tapas Style

If being able to offer your Mum a holiday is impossible for you, then create a theme at home! Try venturing your Mum out to try some authentic cuisine, or even cook for her at home. You could try a traditional Moroccan tagine cooked stew, or even take her out to a Tapas bar where drinks and meze are all foreign and yummy. Flavours can go down a treat when done right, so treat her to something unique that she's never done before.
