Day 2<br><br>Good morning Venice!!!<br><br>I woke up too early as I'm still used to Yerevan&#8217;s time. At about 8 o&#8217;clock the bells from the church near us began to ring. It was wonderfull, maybe for many of you it is usual but for me it&#8217;s something extraordinary, as there are no bell towers in Yerevan, and no ringing bells. Only in the main square and it is automatic, not real.<br><br>We went out of the room and felt the ...

We are traveling today to Siena and won't be able to communicate for awhile so wanted to give a big shout out to our friend John Ruppe. Have a good one bro, we love you!! We also wanted to tell the Heavens above to give Mick's Grandpa Ted a kiss and hug and ask to ...

... lemon veal<br>(VERY modern bathroom). Walked past shops in via 22 Marzo to La Fenice Opera<br>House, Bacino Orseolo with lots of gondolas parked, St Mark's Sq, all the way<br>to Santa Maria Formosa where Guido grew up in Calle del Paradiso (very old).<br>Ice cream in San Lio. Walked to Rialto &amp; took vap to San Marcuola to<br>S&amp;Gs. Rested &amp; ate dinner at Pontini's ...

Hello Friends and Family,<br>Today started out much more calm and relaxed. It was a beautiful day, sunny and around 60. Spent a few hours looking around and walking the back streets with the locals. It was really amazing, the small streets and the thin people. The market was cool with the fresh fish, fruit, etc. We then had to use the restroom, aka "Toilet" which is something that is almost impossible! I think there ...

... are waiting for us... we cannot stay much longer! We didn't miss the opportunity of another morning thermal treatment, of a healthy bath and of a tasty lunch. We than got the rented car and drove to the Venice airport to return to Paris. I still have, even though a few months have passed by, lovely memories of our holiday: one of the best and relaxing we have ever had together with the serenity that Abano Terme has been able to transmit us.

We made our first trip to Venice today after a failed attempt of getting on the wrong train and going all the way to Slovenia! We were happy that we got it right this time! And since it is January, it was a bit on the cold side. But we had fun exploring and getting lost. I had no idea Venice was so big. We must have ...

... been attempted to be reinforced with wooden planks to prevent sinking. As is common knowledge, this hasn't worked so well and you can see wonky buildings with water lapping at them everywhere. We say Brisvegas is a river city? Not quite so much as this! Though it was to be expected, the touristy aspect of Venice was a bit unfortunate... within a 100 metre radius of landmarks such as the Ponte di Rialto and Basilica San Marco there are shops and stalls with exactly ...

... how people can say this, considering the town basically shuts down at 11 or 12 and there are not really any bars to go out in....but I love Venice - I just wish I was here with someone to enjoy it. I met a couple of guys from Texas my first night in town and we all went to dinner together and ended up having really good conversation for the rest of the night. Unfortunately, they left the next day and since then I have been on my own ...

... felt secluded. We were within walking distance of everything...the only time we took the boats was to ride down the canal few times and to/from the train station. Venice has so much to offer by just walking around...I think we got lost once or twice but it was worth it! I would go back in a heartbeat!

... I would have no problem getting on the plane - they couldn't just strand me in Venice, right? Well, turns out that I cause quite a ruckus with Ryan Air, and at the Venice and Rome airports. I show up to check in, and give the ticket attendant my copy of my passport and my drivers license (the same things that got me to Venice). She looks at me, and says "This won't work." I, getting a little nervous, tell her how they let me on the plane in Rome with the ...
