It is now the morning of the 19th of May, and we have just sailed from Venice. I am sad to leave the city behind though I feel that we had a good two and a half days, maybe two total with the arrival so late on the sixteenth and the boarding process yesterday. We have seen many many sights in Venice and have some excellent memories to take with us. A tour of a glass blowing factory in Murano and the many long walks around Venice herself. The gondola ride which ...

Waiting for the boarding for the first leg to Venice - got through security in record time and now have an hour and a bit in the boarding lounge !

Well the long weekend is about over and it is time to head for home. We are packed and waiting to dump our sewer tanks and head for home. An awesome weekend of walks, friends, fires with the occasional drink and awesome meal to fill in the blank spaces with more fun than can be imagined unless you have been there. I feel lucky to share these times with the people in my life, it makes it so much better to share.

Awesome, fantastic, incredible words sometimes fail me when I have had a day that defies all reason. A walk with friends through some of the earths most beautiful scenery, followed by an excellent meal with the most wonderful of friends. Truly life is at it's finest today. I hope that it is as wonderful for everyone everywhere, as this kind of feeling should be shared.

We headed out on the graasi lake trail again this year it is a beautiful area with the most beautiful water colors. A great two hour hike with awesome scenery and great company.
