We arrived in the city of Romance on Ce's Birthday... you couldn't ask for a better place to celebrate it. It's so surreal seeing all of the buildings here surrounded by water... all that you see is one feast for the eyes after another.
We were staying in a small B&B in Tessera about 20 km's from Venice and we have moved to a Agra-Tourist Farm, it is very scenic and quite beautiful but in the same area, it was a very good option for us to extend our stay by 2 nights in order for me to visit the Islands of Venice, while Ce learns to plants some seeds and take care of the land and the animals.
Our drive here was very interesting, (as always, the Italians are loony on the road) but the mountains offered unbelievably spectacular views... we have never been through so many long (I mean long) tunnels in our lives.
Weather has been excellent 18 - 26 degrees during the day and we're enjoying ourselves to the fullest.
Stay tuned for more on the Islands of Venice in our next blog.

ReplyDeleteDerm, veo que te animaste a manejar, es otro feeling, cuando manejas los tiempos, pero como decia mi viejo te pierdes algo del paisaje, asi que si quieren la proxima, voy de chofer.. ja ja
ReplyDeleteLooks spectacular, I think I'm in love. Although I think with all that water you should have been wearing water wings. Naughty Derm taking photos when not allowed. I wonder if you will get more massive pigeon "shite" dropped on you !
ReplyDeleteI am sure you would entertain the crowds as a street performer, either that or get more "free" accommodation . All our love J& L
