U.S. Air direct from Philly to Venice arrived an hour early Friday morning. The flight was a breeze, or to be more exact, a tailwind.
Took the train into Venice today from Castlefrance at a cost of ten dollars round trip, great trains in Italy these days. Walking around the city on this perfect late summer day, I am reminded why I love this city so much. Although not as crowded when I was here in the spring rains four years ago, there are still lots and lots of folks enjoying Venice today.
We're headed in to the Dolomites Monday. I rode my bike 40 miles yesterday to loosen my legs and have never had both cars and huge trucks drive so close to me in my life. I must say I'm looking forward to the quieter(if incredibly steeper) roads in the mountains.
