Mmmmm. Tailwinds.
Mmmmm. Flat roads.
I felt the excitement growing in me as I neared Venice.
Venice. Am I really going to be in Venice?
That’s where the streets are made of water, right?
I’ve never been so excited about a city in my whole life.
I arrived late, at around 6pm. I had made the mistake of only emailing one potential CouchSurfing.org host. His email told me that his house was full. I decided to leave the Venice sightseeing till tomorrow, and search for a place to sleep. It was great weather, and promised to be a fair night.
I hope my suggestion to visit Venice didn't disappoint. It may not be as interesting without a significant OTHER along. I visited with my wife, and we had a tremendous, romantic getaway. Bon Giorno!
I've just been catching up on all the blog and photos. It must be really great to be so far through Europe.
