Grappa
2 weeks ago we visited to Bassano del Grappa, which is a beautiful city in northern Italy, where they make Grappa. It is a small town and they have a grappa museum.

Venice... you've worked your magic!
... Incredibly photogenic as well, but discretion is required!
The Burano trip eliminates many tourists, thus a smaller crowd exited the ferry on this needlework island filled with brightly coloured homes. The detailed handiwork was exceptional, with Sheree purchasing one memorable item for our home. I was able to take numerous photos, and the highlight for me was a glimpse through the clouds of a ...
