Venice, Italy




It has been a whirlwind week!  We have attacked the lice bug with a vengeance...hopefully never to been seen again!  :)
It's COLD here and we have a little snow on the ground.
 I haven't uploaded anything new but that is OK because I still have a little catch-up to do!
Yes, this is the last part of our cruise...the port that we took the ship from was Venice so we had a little time to tour around on our way back.
Here we are getting off the cruise ship.  All refreshed and excited to get home to see the kiddos.

Venice is such an neat place!  I love all the canals.

The famous Rialto bridge.
You can't to Italy without getting some yummy Italian food!

We ate lunch at this restaurant and we enjoyed a table next to the canal.  What is funny is that it started raining SO hard when we were eating.   

It was raining so hard that the Gondola driver was jumping out of the boat!
While avoiding the rain we found a bakery that also served wine...gotta love Italy!

We were SO wet by the time the rain stopped.

There are so many small streets and fun places to look at.

What a great way to end the trip!

Venice is special.
I can spend a week there and get thoroughly lost up and down those streets.
But, there's shopping to get lost with and dining and gelato!
But, you need the time and gotta stay there in one of the hotels.
Hope to do that again soon. You two look great and rested and ready to get back to the kiddos and Jon and myself and, thus, ends "Adventures in Babysitting!"
