Tomorrow we leave Venice and head for the Laverda's home in Vicenza. We will stop in Breganza first to visit with some of Scott's associates. It will be the first day of driving in Italy. Venice has been surreal, we have walked so much and gotten lost multiple times a day...part of the joy of being in Venice! It has been cold and we know not to leave the hotel in the morning without gloves, scarves, jackets and double layers. When we get too cold we stop in a cafe for a quick espresso and then head back out , walking with a bit more life in our step...
Food has been great, everything from fresh caught seafood to incredible polenta to our paninis this afternoon-proscuitto and buffalo mozzarella for Scott and grilled radicchio and brie for me.
Finished reading Eat, Pray, Love last night when I woke up at midnight and couldn't sleep (still struggling with the time change). Thanks Janelle for the suggestion. It's an amzing book and I am going to pass it on to Laurel in Milan.
