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 ...

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 ...

... the richness of colours, art and history. While she was looking for thermal centres she discovered that in Italy exists a specialized centre in Hydrokinesis as well as in aesthetic and wellness treatments. She is quite taken by massages and aesthetic and therefore she organised a well-being holiday for both of us. My wife busy with her anti-stress massages and dedicated to her body shape and I quite engaged with rehabilitation and cures for ...

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 ...

... he rushed her home and all appeared to be okay but during the opening celebrations for the bridge, his wife went into labour to deliver a stillborn baby and she died soon after. *Marco Polo's Chinese wife, Hau Gong (brought back from China when he was there and loved for her beautiful singing), was disliked in Venice due to being 'different' and so while Marco Polo was away, his sister tolder Hau Gong that Marco Polo had been killed. With nothing left to live for ...

... use my bloody imagination. We did, however, enjoy a free trip on a casino ferry, but snuck out quickly so we didn't have to gamble. The city is a veritable maze, very easy to get lost. We basically just referenced our map here and there, then set off in a general direction. There are something like 18 churches in just a few square kms, making for some good landmarks. All the canals cutting through town make it that much more of a hassle, as there aren't too many bridges. All in ...

... In any case, it was a terrible but muchneeded lesson. I am across thew world travelling by myself and can not let my guard down. So I wonàt :) On to better things... I went down to the piazza last night and sat at Caffe Quadri. I had a bellini and theyàre soo mujch better than at home. I think it was prosecco and peach juice. Real peach juice. The bellini was invented here. I went back to my little cafe again today and they knew what I wanted. Quaddri was fantastic-the ...

... basis, did not hide out there. Nor would they want to with 17 km of tunnels on three levels spanning 200 years and only a few inches front ceiling to head! The tour took us along the Appian Way, the only original Roman road left in modern times, and the area has been left undeveloped. Boy those Romans could build a road to last - you may recall that the Appian Way is where Spartacus and 30 000 other rebels were crucified as a message that Pax Romana means do it the Roman way, or ...
