... and shout in minimum 100 different languages. Yes, everything became usual again... <br><br>At that time we hurried to the Square, we had to manage to visit at least the Doge's Palace. <br><br>First we tried to enter San Marco church BUT the queue!!!!!!!!! It was so big, we had no time.. <br>By the way, I learnt that the first coffee shop in Europe opened exactly on this square. Venice was then the biggest trading town in Europe, so it ...

... me, I love to start a conversation. Anyway, we met a guy from Detroi, two other guys from Washington, a girl from Arizona, a girl from Philladelphia and then a couple from Springfield. I was in talking heaven. We came back to our room, played cards and drank Budweiser we found at a grocery store here on Lido. Then journyed back for an evening stroll in Venice which turned into another evening "FALL" FOR ME!! Yes ...

... precious source of this area. It's the fango matured in the thermal water that made us understand the uniqueness of this Hotel and of the town. The therapist has explained us is prepared in the thermal structure of the Hotel by using the thermal water. The mud matures in basins for a period of two, three months absorbing the beneficial substances contained in this special water. The first two days have passed quickly and were dedicated to our ...

... over 5 miles. <br>A lot of people told us we'd visit Venice regularly over the next few years while we are stationed in Aviano....and I think they might be right. Venice is an enchanting place, and the food is pretty darn good as well.<br>Allen and I are hopeless romantics, so this place seems to suite us well. ;)<br>

... the touristy areas like along the Grand Canal was about 30 Euros for spaghetti al pomodoro (spaghetti with a tomato sauce, honestly mouth-watering and much more exciting than it sounds) which can be found fro about 9 Euros in smaller back-alley trattorias. We ate at the most lovely little trattoria on the second night, in a darker little street that had virtually nothing else on it... it was everything you think of when you think of an Italian restaurant, with an al ...

... confident he was talking about what people are ashamed of - mostly their bodies. The dancers all used wheelchairs as props - something I have never seen before. The performance was incredibly moving and powerful and really made me wish that I was up there with them. I honestly wish everyone could have been there - I rate them right up there with Alvin Ailey (can you believe I just said that...woah)! During the performance I sat next ...

... on. Like my feelings on Royal Tenenbaums I found myself somewhere in the middle. It's a beautiful city, I'm not sure anyone can deny that. But it didn't leave an impact on me the way a place like Dubrovnik or Krakow did. It's more a tourist playground than anything else, and maybe that's part of it. My cousin Briana (the one in Prague) described it as Italy's Disneyworld, and it does have more the feel of a touristy themepark than a foreign city. In my first moment in the ...

... now in DEEP trouble with Ryan Air, and I caused a huge amount of drama at thee Venice airport, all because of my own stupidity. I must have had good karma stored up for years for them to let me on the plane, and for our bus to drive up right when Nichole and I got to the train station in Rome. It was a story that now I can look back and laugh at. The funny thing is, Rome is so lax on security, that they wouldn't have known that I didn't have a passport when ...
