The Amazing Italy trip by Ariah
April 28 in Australia ⋅ ⛅ 18 °C
Italy
Swoosh went the plane as it landed in Milan (Italy). We stayed in Italy for two weeks, it was so fun. The first five days we stayed in Milan. We stayed in a fancy hotel room and it had a little balcony.

Then for five days we stayed in Florence. In Florence we went to the leaning tower of Pisa. Then it was EASTER and I got a giant Easter egg with a kinder surprise toy in it.

Next we stayed in Venice for four days. In Venice we stayed in a very nice apartment with a big kitchen.

Italy was really fun.

Then we drove all the way to Milan again to get on the plane. On the plane I watched a lot of movies, because we went on two planes. One of the planes was six hours and the other one was fourteen hours. Italy was amazingRead more

Tips and tricks
April 26 in Italy ⋅ ⛅ 17 °C
Lorenzo’s poem:

Quant’è bella giovinezza,

che si fugge tuttavia!

chi vuol esser lieto, sia:

di doman non c’è certezza.

"How beautiful is youth, / though quickly it does flee! / be happy if you want to: / for tomorrow may not come"

Best dinner in Milan: La Hora Feliz
Best lunch in Milan: luini panzerotti
Best food in Florence: TikTok famous Gino - next to Ponte vecchio, Osteria centipoveri and our own pasta (Pastamania Airbnb), fried pizza balls coccoli
Best tours: The Last supper milan and Chiara free walking tour from GuruWalk in Milan

The better the view, the worse the food.
20,000 steps a day counteracts the carbs.Read more

A quick stop for a walk along the Venetian walls and up to the citadel for (boob) cake and coffee.
We had our personal tour guide (dad) tell us about the walls.

In far Verona was where we laid our scene for lunch. Unfortunately the rest of Europe was also laying their scene there and the line for Juliette’s balcony was filling the street so continue along our way. A town of another name would smell as sweet.Read more

Biennale di Venezia

We celebrated the opening day of the Biennale Di Venezia (after two years of cancellation due to covid) in the Giardini di biennale. The Australian pavilion of sound art was cool but there was lots of other contemporary art so different from Leonardo and Botticelli that lead to some interesting questions from Ariah (especially in awkward orchid room … thanks Belgium)

We decided to eat our final Italian dinner in the family restaurant in our alleyway next to our accommodation, Trattoria Alle Lance, which was more like dinner and a show with the Italian version of Fawlty towers eventually serving our food. It was all delicious but very funny and we were lucky to get what we ordered even after the 4th time the waiter checked what we ordered, an hour into our visit.Read more

The canals of Venezia
April 21 in Italy ⋅ 🌧 11 °C

A peaceful gondola ride through the beautiful Venetian canals. Maurizio serenaded us with Italian songs which mesmerised us all. It was peaceful and just what we needed after a big travelling day. Maurizio told us stories of dodgy families and palaces along the canals. Which we later realised were Doge family palaces - a very famous Venetian family.Read more

Tried to get an aperol spritz in Yamba. It didn’t come with aperol and dad had to stop him putting Chardonnay in it. Disappointed but they only charged 4.50
