Venezia - The Miracle City

What a way to end this magical mystery tour, in the City of Miracles !
We have a gorgeous hotel right near la Stazione and il Canale Grande. We start our stay here with a wonderful cena in the Marco Polo Trattoria. "Quanti ?" they ask as Bianca and I walk in. "Diciannove" we reply in unison and they almost fall off their chairs. They give us a back room all to ourselves and the lawleyitalia 2010 family settles in for a wonderful cena insieme. It's good to have the family together again.










"Tutto fa brodo" is one of the themes of this tour. We try to teach everything, from tips on washing clothes on the cheap to how to deal with street sellers to how to get a great photograph. What a learning experience !



Ponte Rialto !







Signor Spice finally meets his match ! ("I'm a REAL boy !")



Signora Petale shouts for joy, "C'è l'abbiamo fatta !!!!"



Piazza San Marco. Fa molto freddo ma una cioccolata calda al bar preferito di Fiona ci riscalda tanto. Grazie Bianca, è buonissimo !



A midnight serenade on the way home is a wonderful way to end our first day a Venezia !
