Pick of the week for March 1-7 goes to the google doodle that was posted on March 4th celebrating music composter Antonio Vivaldi’s Birthday! I absolutely love the google doodles and look forward to when they post new ones! This one has joined my list of favourites!

Feel free to post your favourite google doodle in the comments section.
