Venice

Our day was spent in this incredibly unique city. At the end of the day everyone expressed that it was nothing like what they expected. We logged 8 miles! We tried to follow Alicia's advice and get lost 😀. There were so many people and the more we got off the beaten track the happier we were. It was cold (in the high 30's) so we chased the sun over literally 💯 bridges, sat dangling our feet of the canals and eating as we warmed ourselves. The "streets" are so narrow. There are zero cars because sometimes a bike doesn't even fit. The window shopping is extraordinary. Murano glass, mardi gras type masks and leather dominate and the displays are sometimes breathtaking. We did wind our way to Piazza San Marco. The bascillica was cool and the VIN brule (mulled wine) warm. It was a perfect combo😀. Dinner at "home" was a crazy assortment of left overs. Since we are taking a sleeper train to Munich tomorrow night we decided not to drag any food along. I am eating and drinking like there is no tomorrow. We all are..or so I tell myself. Wish I could slow down time. Oh....and Wyatt left our train tickets for Munich in Munich but luckily they arrived today while we were out. Thank God for his friends and overnighting packages.Leggi altro
