in Venice, no less! well, sort of. we did laundry in our room last night and hung it on our Rick Steve's clotes line, and of course, nothing dried! So, we came to the Laundry, where they have an internet point. too funny! This is the one keyboard I've seen thath has an American setup, but you have to press really hard, so you can't type normally and it beeps with every character typed. This is a labor of love!
We love venice, don't really want to leave. Yesterday, we got here so early, we were able to see the city without the bajillions of tourists, and it was wonderful. Cold, but wonderful! Todaywe're doing walking tours from RS' book and maybe going to Murano (think glass). Last night, we took RS' advice and did a Venice style "pub crawl". We ate cicheta (CHICK-eta) or bar snacks and drank the house white wine. When we finally got to the first one, we didn't want to leave,but thought we should see something else, so we moved on. The 2nd was too hot, and the 3rd too trendy/crowded, so we went back to the first and in honor of Eric Englan ate crawdad looking guys! Hoping they're open tonight!
You are doing Italy the way it was meant to be done!
