Grappa
... and voila there is grappa. I reallly do not like it, it is way too strong for me, but it was nice to see anyway. Since it was beginning of winter, they put up a fake ice-skating field in the middle of the square. It was a beautiful, sunny day and the ice-pad felt a little out of place, but the idea is very nice.
On our way home we stopped at cittadella, which is medieval city, that still has the old ...
A sinking feeling in the floating city

On the road again!
... m sure they will hate the pasta and then on to Munich, Berlin, Amsterdam, Paris and London in 10 days. They were rightly complaining about their travel agent and their boyfriends. One boyfriend was so bad he was going to a lingerie party which was causing much grief, girltalk and phonecalls home to get additional opinions about the depth of this crime. Slept some. Venice is still there. The sunshine was really nice!! We dropped our bags ...
