Hi, and unfortunately just a quick note, as I have not been able to get internet access in rural Italy for the last few days, and am at internet cafe in Venice for a few mins before the train leaves.
We"ve had a fabulous time in Italy for the last few days. The accommodation is quaintly rural, and pretty comfortable without being luxurious. The weather has been spectacular for the last few days, clear blue skys and sunny, though very cold. We have spent a day in Padova, and the last two days in Venice, and the conditions are perfect. Venice turns out to be a lot more interesting than I expected - there is a genuineness to most of it that belies its description as a tourist honeypot. If this is the quiet time, you would not want to see it busy! It also has a familiarity even though we have not been here before, which is a little unnerving.
Weve got some great photos, but no time to put them up now. Will do so if and when I get the chance.
Jen and Pam leave tomorrow morning, and we then follow by train to Nice with an overnight stop in Milan. My mum will continue to travel with us, which is great.
Got to run.
More news and pictures when I can.
