we finally made it to Venice last nite!! We dumped all of our stuff and ran to the city. We carefully explored the canals (it is SOOOOO easy to get lost here) and got our mandatory gelatto. We were only staying here for one nite, so today we went back into the city, and then to the island of Murano to look for their famous glass. I'm pretty glad we aren't staying here longer. Its a pretty city, but it is SO overrun with tourists, its driving me nuts.Tonite we are for some reason voluntarily getting back onto a 12 hours
train ride (our first, last and only overnight train!). We are going from Venice to Vienna and are staying there for one night before we go to Prague for 2 nites.
Hopefully all is well back in the states, all we hear about are floods and fires here, so stay high (and not too dry) over there!!
Only one week of travel left :'(
Love you guys!!!
Kristyn
oh no! it sounds like you didn't see the truly fabulous side of venice... oh well. the trick is to get way away from san marco!
ReplyDeletehave fun in vienna- i've always wanted to go there. the city of mozart and franz joseph and liederhosen... germany too ;)
Wow long train rides, at least you can catch up on some sleep, maybe? Only one week left? that went by fast.
ReplyDeleteLadies, I do hope you can enjoy this train ride...perhaps it will be like the Orient Express??? (without Poirot!!!) Enjoy Vienna, and Kristyn, if you did not spin around and do a little Sound of Music tribute in Switzerland (as requested)...you can hang out of one of the trees in Vienna!!!
ReplyDeleteEnjoy, Ladies...and DeLand is hot, but just usual June weather!
Love to you both!!!
