We left Rome this morning (so sad – we had an amazing time in so many ways!) and caught the fast train to Venice. Getting off at St Lucia and hopping on the vaporetto meant that all my beautiful memories of Venice from 1999 came flooding back.
We are staying at Don Orione, a religious guesthouse right near Accademia. It is wonderful accommodation and the church attached to our building is just beautiful. We feel very lucky to stay here! Our room is sparse – no TV or radio. We have a small desk and we get breakfast in the morning. It is glorious!
It is so good to be back!
