Island Hopping in Venice
... half hour, you have to wonder if this might be an economical decision to extract the $. After all, everybody had already either bought a ticket or travel pass.
By the time I reached F de Nuove, this time opting to walk from there instead of the long ride back, it was almost 6pm. It was interesting to wander this part of the island, and returned back to the hostel to meet new folks before we headed out to dinner and my first pizza in Italy. Yum!

I love Italy!!
... to be saying that about every place we go in Italy - definitely a pattern here :)
We arrived into Rome on Sept. 2nd & stayed overnight in a campground (something like Bingemans) in a cabin & 1st thing in the morning we were on our way to Siena. Driving through Italy is like viewing a patchwork quilt - lovely fields & vineyards in their neat squares with the occasional hilltop town popping up here & there. We stopped in the hillside town of Montepulciano for ...
