WELCOME

This blog is about the adventure of traveling and especially the interesting people that you meet. We will share stories about people and places we have encountered from around the United States, Ireland, Scotland, England, Italy, Austria, Switzerland, Germany, France, Canada, Spain, Mexico, The Vatican, The Netherlands, Belgium, Zambia, Botswana, Zimbabwe, South Africa, Liechtenstein, Portugal, Czech Republic, Hungary, Slovakia, and more. This is not a travelogue -- we leave that to Rick Steves -- this is a collection of fragments in the journey of life.

Venice. Italy

Across the Grand Canal
Venice is a lovely visit. We would suggest that you get up early and go for a walk - possibly through the Ghetto - then back to hotel or B&B for brunch. Spend the afternoon resting or watching the water or taking in a museum -but leave the sidewalks to tourists off the cruise ships (Cruise ships are being kept from Venice proper now.) In the evening when all of the tourists are back on the ships is a great time to take a long walk along the canals and have a late dinner. Most of the shops will be closed, but other than glass, you do not need to buy anything.
